Explain how you could use the method of Lagrange multipliers to find the extrema of a function of two variables, subject to the constraint that is a point on the boundary of a triangle in the xy-plane.
Solve the exact differential equations in Exercises 63–66.
In Exercises, by considering the function subject to the constraint you will explore a situation in which the method of Lagrange multipliers does not provide an extremum of a function.
Explain whyis not an extremum of subject to the constraint
Construct examples of the thing(s) described in
the following.
Try to find examples that are different than
any in the reading.
(a) A function z = f(x, y) for which ∇f(0, 0) = 0 but f is
not differentiable at (0, 0).
(b) A function z = f(x, y) for which ∇f(0, 0) = 0 for every
point in R2.
(c) A function z = f(x, y) and a unit vector u such that
Du f(0, 0) = ∇f(0, 0) · u.
