Question: The temperature at a point ( x , y , z ) is given by T ( x , y , z ) = 2

The temperature at a point (x, y, z) is given by T(x, y, z)=200ex^25y^29z^2 where T is measured in C and x, y, z in meters.
(a) Find the rate of change of temperature at the point P(2,1,5) in the direction towards the point (2,1,5).C/m
(b) In which direction does the temperature increase fastest at P?
(c) Find the maximum rate of increase at P.
