I'm studying for a final exam and can't understand the process for this question. The question was on a previous test and I have the answer as well.
z = f(x, t), x = g(s, t), s = h(t). Write the chain rule for dz/dt.
The answer:
fx(x, t)[gs(s, t)h'(t) gt(s, t)] ft(x, t)
How do I approach this problem?
