Consider the following equation. f(x, y) = e−(x − a)2 − (y − b)2 (a) Find the critical points. (x, y) = a,b (b) Find a and b suc

h that the critical point is at (−3, 8). a = b = (c) For the values of a and b in part (b), is (−3, 8) a local maximum, local minimum, or a saddle point?

a.

f(x,y)=e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}\implies\begin{cases}f_x=-2(x-a)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}\\f_y=-2(y-b)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}\end{cases}

Critical points occur where f_x=f_y=0. The exponential factor is always positive, so we have

\begin{cases}-2(x-a)=0\\-2(y-b)=0\end{cases}\implies(x,y)=\boxed{(a,b)}

b. As the previous answer established, the critical point occurs at (-3, 8) if \boxed{a=-3} and \boxed{b=8}.

c. Check the determinant of the Hessian matrix of f(x,y):

\mathbf H(x,y)=\begin{bmatrix}f_{xx}&f_{xy}\\f_{yx}&f_{yy}\end{bmatrix}

The second-order derivatives are

f_{xx}=(-2+4(x-a)^2)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}

f_{xy}=4(x-a)(y-b)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}

f_{yx}=4(x-a)(y-b)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}

f_{yy}=(-2+4(y-b)^2)e^{-(x-a)^2-(y-b)^2}

so that the determinant of the Hessian is

\det\mathbf H(x,y)=f_{xx}f_{yy}-{f_{xy}}^2=\left((4(x-a)^2-2)(4(y-b)^2-2)-16(x-a)^2(y-b)^2\right)e^{-2(x-a)^2-2(y-b)^2}

\det\mathbf H(x,y)=(16(x-a)^2(y-b)^2-8(x-a)^2-8(y-b)^2)+4)e^{-2(x-a)^2-2(y-b)^2}

The sign of the determinant is unchanged by the exponential term so we can ignore it. For a=x=-3 and b=y=8, the remaining factor in the determinant has a value of 4, which is positive. At this point we also have

f_{xx}(-3,8;a=-3,b=8)=-2

which is negative, and this indicates that (-3, 8) is a local maximum.

Answer:

<em>angle ABD =</em><u><em>55 degree</em></u>

<em>angle BCD= </em><u><em>125 degree</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

angle ABD and angle DBC are supplementary angles.

Hence, angle ABD +angle DBC = 180 --equation 1

angle ABD = (2x+15) ---equation 2

angle BCD = (4x+45) ------equation 3

ABD+DBC=180

(2x+15) + ( 4x+45 ) = 180

2x+4x+15+45=180

6x+60=180

6x=180-60

6x=120

x=120/6=20

angle ABD= 2x+15= 2(20) +15

                              =40+15= 55 degree

angle BCD= 4x+45 = 4(20) +45

                                = 80+45= 125 degree

Hence, angle ABD =55 degree

            angle BCD= 125 degree

<em>Hope this helps.</em>
