  2. Linear approximation with two variables - Mathematics Stack …

    Mar 23, 2015 · I know how to do linear approximation with just one variable (take the derivative and such), but with two variables (and later on in the assignment, three variables) I'm a bit lost.

    Jul 17, 2015 · 1) Approximation is used to compute most of the stuff on a computer, however rarely linear approximation. For example, every trigonometric function is implemented using …

  4. calculus - Where did the linear approximation/linearization …

    2 Contrary to Sanath Devalapurkar's answer, this is not really an instance of Taylor series so much as Taylor series are a generalization of this. There are two parts to linear approximation: …

  5. multivariable calculus - Linear approximation in $\mathbb {R}^3 ...

    Sep 25, 2020 · It's a very important point that the derivative of a function (multiple variables or otherwise) is defined as the best linear approximation to the function at that point.
