1. Problem Description
We need to sketch the graph of for the following functions:
7. $f(x, y) = 6$
8. $f(x, y) = 6 - x$
9. $f(x, y) = 6 - x - 2y$
1
0. $f(x, y) = 6 - x^2$
1
1. $f(x, y) = \sqrt{16 - x^2 - y^2}$
1
2. $f(x, y) = \sqrt{16 - 4x^2 - y^2}$
1
3. $f(x, y) = 3 - x^2 - y^2$
1
4. $f(x, y) = 2 - x - y^2$
2. Solution Steps
We need to describe the surface for each function.
7. $f(x, y) = 6$. This is equivalent to $z = 6$. This is a horizontal plane parallel to the $xy$-plane, intersecting the $z$-axis at $z = 6$.
8. $f(x, y) = 6 - x$. This is equivalent to $z = 6 - x$. This is a plane parallel to the $y$-axis. In the $xz$-plane, it's the line $z = 6 - x$, or $x + z = 6$.
9. $f(x, y) = 6 - x - 2y$. This is equivalent to $z = 6 - x - 2y$, or $x + 2y + z = 6$. This is a plane. The intercepts are $(6, 0, 0)$, $(0, 3, 0)$, and $(0, 0, 6)$.

0. $f(x, y) = 6 - x^2$. This is equivalent to $z = 6 - x^2$. This is a cylinder parallel to the $y$-axis. In the $xz$-plane, it's the parabola $z = 6 - x^2$, or $x^2 = 6 - z$.

1. $f(x, y) = \sqrt{16 - x^2 - y^2}$. This is equivalent to $z = \sqrt{16 - x^2 - y^2}$, where $z \geq 0$. Squaring both sides, we get $z^2 = 16 - x^2 - y^2$, or $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 16$. This is a sphere with radius 4 centered at the origin. Since $z \geq 0$, we only have the upper hemisphere.

2. $f(x, y) = \sqrt{16 - 4x^2 - y^2}$. This is equivalent to $z = \sqrt{16 - 4x^2 - y^2}$, where $z \geq 0$. Squaring both sides, we get $z^2 = 16 - 4x^2 - y^2$, or $4x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 16$. Dividing by 16, we get $\frac{x^2}{4} + \frac{y^2}{16} + \frac{z^2}{16} = 1$. This is an ellipsoid. Since $z \geq 0$, we only have the upper half.

3. $f(x, y) = 3 - x^2 - y^2$. This is equivalent to $z = 3 - x^2 - y^2$, or $x^2 + y^2 = 3 - z$. This is a paraboloid opening downwards, with its vertex at $(0, 0, 3)$.
1
4. $f(x, y) = 2 - x - y^2$. This is equivalent to $z = 2 - x - y^2$, or $x = 2 - z - y^2$. This is a parabolic cylinder.
3. Final Answer
7. Horizontal plane at $z = 6$.
8. Plane $z = 6 - x$.
9. Plane $x + 2y + z = 6$.

2. Upper half of the ellipsoid $\frac{x^2}{4} + \frac{y^2}{16} + \frac{z^2}{16} = 1$, $z \geq 0$.
