MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

Let $$\,\,W = f\left( {x,y} \right),\,\,$$ where $$x$$ and $$y$$ are functions of $$t.$$ Then, according to the chain rule, $${{dw} \over {dt}}$$ is equal to

$${{dw} \over {dx}}{{dx} \over {dt}} + {{dw} \over {dy}}{{dt} \over {dt}}$$

$${{\partial w} \over {\partial x}}{{\partial x} \over {\partial t}} + {{\partial w} \over {\partial y}}{{\partial y} \over {\partial t}}$$

$${{\partial w} \over {\partial x}}{{dx} \over {dt}} + {{\partial w} \over {\partial y}}{{dy} \over {dt}}$$

$${{dw} \over {dx}}{{\partial x} \over {\partial t}} + {{dw} \over {dy}}{{\partial y} \over {\partial t}}$$
