Hi!
The answer to this problem is <em>x</em>=5
Answer:
c) 14/5 = 2.8 each (better value)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 9/3 = 3 each
b) 28/7 = 4 each
c) 14/5 = 2.8 each (better value)
Using Lagrange multipliers, we have the Lagrangian

with partial derivatives (set equal to 0)




Substituting the first three equations into the fourth allows us to solve for

:

For each possible value of

, we get two corresponding critical points at

.
At these points, respectively, we get a maximum value of

and a minimum value of

.
False, you graph an open circle on -3 and shade to the right because x must be larger than -3 and it can not equal -3
