A. –xy2cos(xy)-2y sin(xy)

B. –x2ysin(xy)-2y sin(xy)

C. –x2y sin(xy)-2xcos(xy)

D. –x2y sin(xy)

E. –xy2cos(xy)

 

Solution: The answer is A

 

Since,

Which says, take the partial derivative with respect to x of the partial derivative with respect to x of the partial derivative with respect to y of sin(xy). Thus, taking the partial derivatives in the reverse order will generate the solution.

The partial derivative with respect to y of sin(xy) is,

The partial derivative with respect to x of the above result is,

 

 

The partial derivative with respect to x of the above result is,
