The cars will be 330 miles apart after three hours (1.00 pm) from 10.00 am (starting time).

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Data given for first car,

Rate (speed of car 1) = 60 miles/hour

Distance can be calculated by considering ‘X’ for time as,

               \text {rate}=\frac{\text {distance}}{\text {time}}

               distance of first car = rate \times time =60 \times X miles

Similarly, data given for first car

Rate (speed of car 2) = 50 miles/hour

               distance of second car = rate \times time =50 \times X miles

Need to calculate at what time both the cars are 330 miles apart, so the equation would be,

Distance of first car + distance of second car = 330 miles

              60 X + 50 X = 330  

               110 X = 330

               X=\frac{330}{110}=3 \text { hours }

Already given that both the cars leave at 10.00 am, so the time would be 10 am + 3 hours = 1.00 pm.

Hence, it takes three hours for the cars to get 330 miles apart.

Use Lagrange multipliers to find the maximum and minimum values of the function subject to the given constraint. f(x, y) = 2x2y,
hjlf

Answer:

f(-2,-1) = -8 is the minimum value of f(x,y)

f(2,1) = 8 is the maximum value of f(x,y)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x,y) = 2x²y under the constraint 2x² + 4y² = 12

Let g(x,y) = 2x² + 4y² - 12

df/dx = 4xy, df/dy = 2x², dg/dx = 4x and dg/dy = 8y

Now, using the principle of Lagrange multipliers,

df/dx + λdg/dx = 0 and df/dy + λdg/dy = 0.

Substituting the values of the variables, we have

df/dx + λdg/dx = 0    and df/dy + λdg/dy = 0.

4xy + 4xλ = 0      (1)           2x² + 8λy = 0  (2)

xy + xλ = 0

x(y + λ) = 0

x = 0 or y + λ = 0

Since x ≠ 0, y = -λ

Substituting y = -λ into (2), we have

2x² + 8λy = 0

2x² + 8λ(-λ) = 0

2x² - 8λ² = 0

2x² = 8λ²

x² = 4λ²

x = ±2λ  

Substituting the values of x and y into the constraint equation, we have

2x² + 4y² = 12

2(±2λ)² + 4(-λ)² = 12

2(4)λ² + 4λ² = 12

8λ² + 4λ² = 12

12λ² = 12

λ² = 1

λ = ±1

Substituting the value of  λ into x and y, we have

x = ±2λ = ±2(±1) = ±2

y = -λ = -(±1) = ±1

The minimum values of x and y are -2 and -1 respectively. Substituting these int f(x,y), we have

f(-2,-1) = 2(-2)²(-1) = 2 × 4 × (-1) = -8

So f(-2,-1) = -8 is the minimum value of f(x,y)

The maximum values of x and y are 2 and 1 respectively. Substituting these int f(x,y), we have

f(2,1) = 2(2)²(1) = 2 × 4 × 1 = 8

So f(2,1) = 8 is the maximum value of f(x,y)
