If f Subscript x​(a,b)equals f Subscript y​(a,b)equals​0, does it follow that f has a local maximum or local minimum at​ (a,b)?

Explain. Choose the correct answer below. A. Yes. The point​ (a,b) is a critical point and must be a local maximum or local minimum. B. Yes. The tangent plane to f at​ (a,b) is horizontal. This indicates the presence of a local maximum or a local minimum at​ (a,b). C. No. One​ (or both) of f Subscript x and f Subscript y must also not exist at​ (a,b) to be sure that f has a local maximum or local minimum at​ (a,b). D. No. It follows that​ (a,b) is a critical point of​ f, and​ (a,b) is a candidate for a local maximum or local minimum.

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point must be a critical point but it could be a saddle point. If the point is a saddle point it would not be neither a maximum nor a minimum. So it must be critical but it does not follow directly that it has a local maximum or local minimum.

Therefore D. (a,b) would be a candidate, but is not necessarily a maximum or minimum. It could be a saddle.

1.5( x + 4) -3 = 4.5 ( x - 2 )
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5(x + 4) - 3 = 4.5(x - 2)

1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9

1.5x + 3 = 4.5x - 9

3 + 9 = 4.5x - 1.5x

12 = 3x

12/3 = x

4 = x <======

Answer:

<h3>f =27</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

12 = f - 13-2

Collect like terms and simplify

12+13+2 = f\\27 =f

Switch sides

f = 27
