How do we find the gradient? - Answers

To find the gradient of a function, you calculate the partial derivatives of the function with respect to each variable. For a function ( f(x, y) ), the gradient is represented as a vector ( \nabla f = \left( \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}, \frac{\partial f}{\partial y} \right) ). This vector points in the direction of the steepest ascent of the function and its magnitude indicates the rate of increase. You can compute the gradient using calculus techniques, such as differentiation.
