Find the domains of the following functions. Specify the domain mathematically and then describe it in words or with a sketch. $$h(x, y, z)=\sqrt[4]{z^{2}-x z+y z-x y}.$$
Consider the ellipse \(x^{2}+4 y^{2}=1\) in the \(x y\) -plane. a. If this ellipse is revolved about the \(x\) -axis, what is the equation of the resulting ellipsoid? b. If this ellipse is revolved about the \(y\) -axis, what is the equation of the resulting ellipsoid?
Maximizing a sum Find the maximum value of \(x_{1}+x_{2}+x_{3}+x_{4}\) subject to the condition that \(x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}+x_{3}^{2}+x_{4}^{2}=16\).
a. Show that the point in the plane \(a x+b y+c z=d\) nearest the origin is \(P\left(a d / D^{2}, b d / D^{2}, c d / D^{2}\right),\) where \(D^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2} .\) Conclude that the least distance from the plane to the origin is \(|d| / D\). (Hint: The least distance is along a normal to the plane.) b. Show that the least distance from the point \(P_{0}\left(x_{0}, y_{0}, z_{0}\right)\) to the plane \(a x+b y+c z=d\) is \(\left|a x_{0}+b y_{0}+c z_{0}-d\right| / D\).
Production functions Economists model the output of manufacturing systems using production functions that have many of the same properties as utility functions. The family of Cobb-Douglas production functions has the form \(P=f(K, L)=C K^{a} L^{1-a},\) where K represents capital, L represents labor, and C and a are positive real numbers with \(0
