(\partial}{\partial y}(\frac{x+y)/2)

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (\frac{x + y}{2})

\frac{1}{2}

Decimal

0.5

Solution steps

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (\frac{x + y}{2})

Treat

x

as a constant

Take the constant out:

(a \cdot f)^{'} = a \cdot f^{'}

= \frac{1}{2} \frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x + y)

Apply the Sum/Difference Rule:

(f \pm g)^{'} = f^{'} \pm g^{'}

= \frac{1}{2} (\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x) + \frac{\partial}{\partial y} (y))

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x) = 0

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (y) = 1

= \frac{1}{2} (0 + 1)

Simplify

= \frac{1}{2}
