Thanks for all the help and people that have responded to my other posts thus far.
The exercise reads:
The temperature at the point (x,y,z) in space is given by T(x,y,z)= x + yx. A fly is at the point (1,2,1). In what direction should he begin to fly to cool off as quickly as possible? Your answer should be a unit vector in the requested direction.
Question:
Wouldn't the solution just be the unit vector of \(\displaystyle \nabla\)f(1,2,1)?
I've already completed the computation, just wanted to verify my thought-
