Exercise · ZW-LEVEL-CURVE-003 · ★☆☆ Basic

Which point lies on the level curve \(f(x,y)=1\) of \(f(x,y)=x^2-y\)?

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • A. \((2,3)\)

← Back to the question

Explanation

Evaluate: \(f(2,3)=4-3=1\). The others give \(0\), \(0\) and \(7\).

Review the concept: Level curve

A level curve of a function \(f\) of two variables is the set of points in the plane where \(f\) takes one same constant value \(c\).

\[f(x,y)=c\]
