In Exercises, find the maximum and minimum of the function f subject to the given constraint. In each case explain why the maximum and minimum must both exist.
when
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.
Optimize subject to the constraint for nonzero constants a and b. Are there any nonzero values of a and b for which the method of Lagrange multipliers succeeds?
Prove that if you minimize the square of the distance from the origin to a point (x, y) subject to the constraint , you have minimized the distance from the origin to (x, y) subject to the same constraint.
In Exercises , use the partial derivatives of and the point specified to
find the equation of the line tangent to the surface defined by the function in the direction,
find the equation of the line tangent to the surface defined by the function in the direction, and
find the equation of the plane containing the lines you found in parts and .
