Examples of Third Partial Derivatives

Example: $u = \map \ln {x^2 + y}$

Let $u = \map \ln {x^2 + y}$ be a real function of $2$ variables such that $x^2 + y \in \R_{>0}$.

Then:

$\dfrac {\partial^3 u} {\partial y^2 \partial x} = \dfrac {\partial^3 u} {\partial x \partial y^2} = \dfrac {\partial^3 u} {\partial x \partial y \partial x} = \dfrac {4 x} {\paren {x^2 + y}^3}$
