Answer:

Saddle point: (0,0)

Local minimum: (\frac{3}{8}, -\frac{3}{8})

Local maxima: (0,-\frac{9}{8}), (\frac{9}{8},0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is:

f(x,y) = 8\cdot y^{2}\cdot x -8\cdot y\cdot x^{2} + 9\cdot x \cdot y

The partial derivatives of the function are included below:

\frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = 8\cdot y^{2}-16\cdot y\cdot x+9\cdot y

\frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = y \cdot (8\cdot y -16\cdot x + 9)

\frac{\partial f}{\partial y} = 16\cdot y \cdot x - 8 \cdot x^{2} + 9\cdot x

\frac{\partial f}{\partial y} = x \cdot (16\cdot y - 8\cdot x + 9)

Local minima, local maxima and saddle points are determined by equalizing  both partial derivatives to zero.

y \cdot (8\cdot y -16\cdot x + 9) = 0

x \cdot (16\cdot y - 8\cdot x + 9) = 0

It is quite evident that one point is (0,0). Another point is found by solving the following system of linear equations:

\left \{ {{-16\cdot x + 8\cdot y=-9} \atop {-8\cdot x + 16\cdot y=-9}} \right.

The solution of the system is (3/8, -3/8).

Let assume that y = 0, the nonlinear system is reduced to a sole expression:

x\cdot (-8\cdot x + 9) = 0

Another solution is (9/8,0).

Now, let consider that x = 0, the nonlinear system is now reduced to this:

y\cdot (8\cdot y+9) = 0

Another solution is (0, -9/8).

The next step is to determine whether point is a local maximum, a local minimum or a saddle point. The second derivative test:

H = \frac{\partial^{2} f}{\partial x^{2}} \cdot \frac{\partial^{2} f}{\partial y^{2}} - \frac{\partial^{2} f}{\partial x \partial y}

The second derivatives of the function are:

\frac{\partial^{2} f}{\partial x^{2}} = 0

\frac{\partial^{2} f}{\partial y^{2}} = 0

\frac{\partial^{2} f}{\partial x \partial y} = 16\cdot y -16\cdot x + 9

Then, the expression is simplified to this and each point is tested:

H = -16\cdot y +16\cdot x -9

S1: (0,0)

H = -9 (Saddle Point)

S2: (3/8,-3/8)

H = 3 (Local maximum or minimum)

S3: (9/8, 0)

H = 9 (Local maximum or minimum)

S4: (0, - 9/8)

H = 9 (Local maximum or minimum)

Unfortunately, the second derivative test associated with the function does offer an effective method to distinguish between local maximum and local minimums. A more direct approach is used to make a fair classification:

S2: (3/8,-3/8)

f(\frac{3}{8} ,-\frac{3}{8} ) = - \frac{27}{64} (Local minimum)

S3: (9/8, 0)

f(\frac{9}{8},0) = 0 (Local maximum)

S4: (0, - 9/8)

f(0,-\frac{9}{8} ) = 0 (Local maximum)

Saddle point: (0,0)

Local minimum: (\frac{3}{8}, -\frac{3}{8})

Local maxima: (0,-\frac{9}{8}), (\frac{9}{8},0)

To show what he learned about the properties of volume for solids, liquids and gases, Viktor wrote the following summary.
Brrunno [24]

The wrong statement in Viktor's summary is When a round solid ball is placed in a box, the ball takes the shape of the box

The matter has three main states which are

  • Solid
  • Liquid
  • Gas

These states define the way we interact and manipulate materials. For instance:

  • Liquids take the shape of the container that contains them. For example water, milk, soda, among others.
  • Solids have a defined shape and do not deform when manipulated or placed inside another container. For example, a round solid ball.
  • Gases generally do not have colors and their atoms are not organized so they do not have a definite shape and take the shape of their container. For example, the air in a balloon.

According to the above, the error in Viktor's summary is in the first phase, and the correct statement is A. because solids does not take the shape of its container.

You have ​$23 comma 000 to​ invest, part at 8 % and the rest at 9 %. If x is the amount invested at 8 %​, write an algebraic exp
Vinvika [58]

<em>x</em> = amount invested at 8 %. Then 23 000 - <em>x</em> = amount invested at 9 %

Annual income (<em>I</em>) = interest at 8 % + interest at 9 %

<em>I</em> = 0.08<em>x</em> + 0.09(23 000 – <em>x</em>)

<em>I</em> = 0.08<em>x</em> + 2070 – 0.09<em>x</em>

<em>I</em> = 2070 – 0.01<em>x</em>

Use the graph of a translated function below to answer this question
Talja [164]

The graph of the function y=x^3 has the point of inflection at the origin. From the diagram you can the that the graph y=f(x - h) + k has the point of inflection at point (-2,-3). So you should translate the graph of the function y=x^3 2 units to the left and 3 units down. This translation is acting on function  y=f(x) in the following way:

  • translation 2 units to the left - y=f(x+2);
  • translation 3 units down - y=f(x+2)-3.

Then h=-2 and k=-3.

Answer: correct choice is A.
