Multivariable Function Lesson

This set of things provide examples of graphs of mulitvariable functions. This page is meant to complement the paper "3D Printed Manipulatives in a Multivariable Calculus Classroom" which will appear in PRIMUS.

The three functions used here are:

• f(x,y) = x^2+y^2
• f(x,y) = xy
• f(x,y) = 2xe^(-x^2-y^2)
