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 you use the method of Lagrange multipliers to find the maximum and minimum of subject to the constraint you obtain two points. Is there a relative maximum at one of the points and a relative minimum at the other? Which is which?
