Answer:

Total distance traveled is 67.653 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Side a = 14 (miles traveled South)

Side b = 25 (miles traveled East)

side c = $a^{2} + b^{2}$

196 + 625 = $c^{2}$

821 = $c^{2}$

$\sqrt{821} = \sqrt{c^{2} }$

c = 28.653 (rounded to the nearest 1000th)

Now add the three sides to get the total distance:

14 + 25 + 28.653 = 67.653

Find all points on the portion of the plane x+y+z=5 in the first octant at which f(x, y, z) = xy2z2 has a maximum value.

irina1246 [14]

Lagrange multipliers:

$L(x,y,z,\lambda)=xy^2z^2+\lambda(x+y+z-5)$

$L_x=y^2z^2+\lambda=0$
$L_y=2xyz^2+\lambda=0$
$L_z=2xy^2z+\lambda=0$
$L_\lambda=x+y+z-5=0$

$\lambda=-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z$

$-y^2z^2=-2xyz^2\implies y=2x$ (if $y,z\neq0$ )

$-y^2z^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=2x$ (if $y,z\neq0$ )

$-2xyz^2=-2xy^2z\implies z=y$ (if $x,y,z\neq0$ )

In the first octant, we assume $x,y,z>0$ , so we can ignore the caveats above. Now,

$x+y+z=5\iff x+2x+2x=5x=5\implies x=1\implies y=z=2$

so that the only critical point in the region of interest is (1, 2, 2), for which we get a maximum value of $f(1,2,2)=16$ .

We also need to check the boundary of the region, i.e. the intersection of $x+y+z=5$ with the three coordinate axes. But in each case, we would end up setting at least one of the variables to 0, which would force $f(x,y,z)=0$ , so the point we found is the only extremum.
