Chapter: 8
page: 244
line number/equation number: paragraph above 7.61
Proposed solution
The sentence above equation 7.61 goes as follows: "Since the function is differentiable, we can find the maximum by taking the derivative and with respect to y setting it to zero.". It should instead be: "Since the function is differentiable, we can find the maximum by taking the derivative with respect to y and setting it to zero."
