Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
we khow that the vertex form of a function is written this way :
f(x)=a(x-h)²+k
- the coordinates of the vertex are (h,k) so from the graph we can deduce that k = -3
Using Lagrange multipliers, we have the Lagrangian
with partial derivatives (set equal to 0)
Substituting the first three equations into the fourth allows us to solve for
:
For each possible value of, we get two corresponding critical points at 
.
At these points, respectively, we get a maximum value of
and a minimum value of 
.
