Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

given 2 points on a line (x1, yx) and (x2,y2)

the formula for slope, m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

in this case,

x1 = 4, y1 = 3, x2 = 2, y2 = 7

Hence,

m = (7-3) / (2-4) = 4 / -2 = -2

We want to find the maximum and minimum values of f(x, y) = 10x2 + 11y on the disk D: x2 + y2 < 1.

dolphi86 [110]

If you're just focusing on the boundary, it's the circle $x^2+y^2=1$ . Parameterize it by taking $x=\cos t$ and $y=\sin t$ , with $0\le t\le2\pi$ . Then $f(x,y)$ reduces to a univariate function $g(t)$ :

$f(x,y)=10x^2+11y\iff g(t)=f(\cos t,\sin t)=10\cos^2t+11\sin t$

Then you can find any extrema on the boundary by checking the critical points of $g$ .
