We first compute ∂ F /∂ x and ∂ F /∂ y
∂ F /∂ x = ∂ F /∂ u + y ∂ F /∂ v
∂ F /∂ x = ∂ F /∂ u + x ∂ F/ ∂ v
Note that these formulas are valid for all functions F(u, v). In particular we can replace F by ∂ F/ ∂ y
When calculating ∂ /∂ x (x81 x ∂ F /∂ v ) we had to apply the product rule. Differentiating the first factor gives ∂ /∂ x (x) = 1 and for the second factor we use the result from above, which was obtained using the chain rule
