The Lagrangian for this function and the given constraints is

L(x,y,z,\lambda_1,\lambda_2)=x^2+y^2+z^2+\lambda_1(x+2y+z-4)+\lambda_2(x-y-8)

which has partial derivatives (set equal to 0) satisfying

\begin{cases}L_x=2x+\lambda_1+\lambda_2=0\\L_y=2y+2\lambda_1-\lambda_2=0\\L_z=2z+\lambda_1=0\\L_{\lambda_1}=x+2y+z-4=0\\L_{\lambda_2}=x-y-8=0\end{cases}

This is a fairly standard linear system. Solving yields Lagrange multipliers of \lambda_1=-\dfrac{32}{11} and \lambda_2=-\dfrac{104}{11}, and at the same time we find only one critical point at (x,y,z)=\left(\dfrac{68}{11},-\dfrac{20}{11},\dfrac{16}{11}\right).

Check the Hessian for f(x,y,z), given by

\mathbf H(x,y,z)=\begin{bmatrix}f_{xx}&f_{xy}&f_{xz}\\f_{yx}&f_{yy}&f_{yz}\\f_{zx}&f_{zy}&f_{zz}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}2&0&0\\0&2&0\\0&0&2\end{bmatrix}

\mathbf H is positive definite, since \mathbf v^\top\mathbf{Hv}>0 for any vector \mathbf v=\begin{bmatrix}x&y&z\end{bmatrix}^\top, which means f(x,y,z)=x^2+y^2+z^2 attains a minimum value of \dfrac{480}{11} at \left(\dfrac{68}{11},-\dfrac{20}{11},\dfrac{16}{11}\right). There is no maximum over the given constraints.

In the previous problem, people sampled three crackers: one from a manufacturer and two from competitors. It turns out that 35%
kipiarov [429]
This cracker should be manufactured because the percent of people thinking the cracker tasted best is greater than the competitor's cracker. This means you will know that your cracker and it's quality is at least better than the two others.

What are the first five terms
tangare [24]

Answer:

Its the first choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

an = the nth term. so:

a1 = 6(1) + 1 = 7

a2 = 6(2) + 1 = 13

a3 = 6(3) + 1 = 19

The common difference is 6.

Complete the equation and tell which property you used<br> (3x10)x8=_x(10x8)
Ganezh [65]
Hi there!
I'm just gonna answer this and explain as I'm doing it.

So we have (3x10)x8= __x(10x8)
Well, first we look at what they did. They couldn't have changed the equation, but just moved things around.
Now, assuming you know your properties, I'm gonna go ahead and answer it.
(3x10)x8=3x(10x8)
^^
I used the Associative property, which basically says that when 3 or more #s are multiplied, the answer doesn't change no matter how you group the numbers. See how they just moved the numbers around, and only swapped the 3 for the 8?
 
Hope this helped!
