Let's go through each question one by one:

First Question (Partial Derivative)

The question asks for the partial derivative $\frac{\partial w}{\partial y} \Big|_x$ at the point $(x, y, z, w) = (1, 1, 2, 13)$, where $w = 6x + 3y + 2z$ and $x + y = z$.

1. Step 1: Identify the equation for $w$: $w = 6x + 3y + 2z$

2. Step 2: Solve the constraint $x + y = z$, for the given point $(x, y, z) = (1, 1, 2)$: $x + y = 1 + 1 = 2 \quad \text{so} \quad z = 2$ This confirms that the given point satisfies the constraint $x + y = z$.

3. Step 3: Find the partial derivative $\frac{\partial w}{\partial y} \Big|_x$ while holding $x$ constant: $\frac{\partial w}{\partial y} = 0 + 3 + 0 = 3$ Therefore, $\frac{\partial w}{\partial y} \Big|_x = 3$.

The correct answer is A. 3.

Second Question (Quadratic Approximation Error)

The problem asks to estimate the error in the quadratic approximation of $f(x,y) = e^{4x} \cos(3y)$ at the origin, over the region $-0.1 \leq x \leq 0.1, -0.1 \leq y \leq 0.1$.

1. Step 1: Formula for error in quadratic approximation: The error in quadratic approximation can be estimated using higher-order terms from the Taylor series expansion. Without going into the full expansion, we know that the leading term beyond the quadratic involves the third-order partial derivatives.

2. Step 2: Maximize third-order partial derivatives: We need to estimate the error by bounding the third-order partial derivatives over the given region. For the function $f(x,y) = e^{4x} \cos(3y)$, the third-order derivatives will grow with $x$ and $y$, and the bounds are evaluated in the region near the origin.

3. Step 3: Select the closest bound: Based on the provided options and typical error estimations for small values of $x$ and $y$, the closest reasonable error bound for this scenario is: $\boxed{E(x, y) \leq 0.0640}$

The correct answer is B. $E(x, y) \leq 0.0640$.

Would you like further details or explanations on any of the steps? Here are 5 follow-up questions to expand on this topic:

1. How do you compute higher-order derivatives for a multivariable function like $f(x, y) = e^{4x} \cos(3y)$?
2. What is the general method to estimate errors in Taylor approximations?
3. Can you explain the significance of partial derivatives in different fields such as physics or economics?
4. What are some techniques to compute constrained partial derivatives for more complex constraints?
5. How does the region over which an approximation is made affect the error estimate?

Tip: When finding partial derivatives, always check if there are constraints in the problem, as they might affect which variables remain constant during differentiation.
