Find the max and min values of f(x,y,z)=x+y-z on the sphere x^2+y^2+z^2=81

Using Lagrange multipliers, we have the Lagrangian

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=x+y-z+\lambda(x^2+y^2+z^2-81)

with partial derivatives (set equal to 0)

L_x=1+2\lambda x=0\implies x=-\dfrac1{2\lambda}
L_y=1+2\lambda y=0\implies y=-\dfrac1{2\lambda}
L_z=-1+2\lambda z=0\implies z=\dfrac1{2\lambda}
L_\lambda=x^2+y^2+z^2-81=0\implies x^2+y^2+z^2=81

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

x^2+y^2+z^2=\dfrac1{4\lambda^2}+\dfrac1{4\lambda^2}+\dfrac1{4\lambda^2}=81\implies\lambda=\pm\dfrac1{6\sqrt3}

For each possible value of \lambda, we get two corresponding critical points at (\mp3\sqrt3,\mp3\sqrt3,\pm3\sqrt3).

At these points, respectively, we get a maximum value of f(3\sqrt3,3\sqrt3,-3\sqrt3)=9\sqrt3 and a minimum value of f(-3\sqrt3,-3\sqrt3,3\sqrt3)=-9\sqrt3.

The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 5.1 m. How long are its sides?
Alja [10]

Answer:

1.7 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

because an equilateral triangle has 3 sides and they are all the same you can just divide 5.1 by 3

5.1 / 3 = 1.7

it is 1.7 m

How did the world's countries solve the problem that mean solar time varies continuously as a traveler's longitude changes
inn [45]

To solve the problem related to mean solar time where it varies continuously as a traveler's longitude changes, scientists divided the earth into 24 time zones (adding other partial zones to it). All the countries in each time zones had to keep the mean standard time assigned to it.

<h3>What is Mean Standard Time?</h3>

This is the time that is measured by synchronizing clocks in different geographical locations within the same time zone to the same time.
