Use lagrange multipliers to find the points on the given surface that are closest to the origin. y2 = 64 + xz

The distance between an arbitrary point on the surface and the origin is

d(x,y,z)=\sqrt{x^2+y^2+z^2}

Recall that for differentiable functions g(x) and h(x), the composition g(h(x)) attains extrema at the same points that h(x) does, so we can consider an augmented distance function

D(x,y,z)=x^2+y^2+z^2

The Lagrangian would then be

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=x^2+y^2+z^2+\lambda(y^2-64-xz)

We have partial derivatives

\begin{cases}L_x=2x-\lambda z\\L_y=2y+2y\lambda\\L_z=2z-\lambda x\\L_\lambda=y^2-64-xz\end{cases}

Set each partial derivative to 0 and solve the system to find the critical points.

From the second equation it follows that either y=0 or \lambda=-1. In the first case we arrive at a contradiction (I'll leave establishing that to you). If \lambda=-1, then we have

\begin{cases}2x+z=0\\2z+x=0\end{cases}\implies x=0,z=0

This means y^2=64\implies y=\pm8

so that the points on the surface closest to the origin are (0,\pm8,0).

Select the correct answer.

Employees salary [$}: 30,000, 30,000, 35,000, 35,000, 40,000, 40,000.

CEO Salary: $70,000.

The correct answer is this: BOTH JAN AND MARCY ARE CORRECT.

Jan says the employee average salary is $35,000. This is correct as shown below:

Average employee salary = 30,000 + 30,000 + 35,000 +35,000 + 40,000 + 40,000 / 6 = 210 / 6 =  $35,000.

Marcy says the average salary of all company members is $40,000. This is also true as shown below.

Average salary of all company members = 30,000 + 30,000 +35,000 + 35,000 + 40,000 + 40,000 + 70,000 / 7 = 280 / 7 = $40,000.

Written as a simplified polynomial in standard form, what is the result when (x-8)^2
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

26x-67-x²

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

(10x - 3) - (x - 8) {}^{2}

Expanding (x-8)²=x²-16x+64

10x-3-(x²-16x+64)

10x-3-x²+16x-64

26x-67-x²

Which of the following points lies on the graph of the function y = 8x?
nignag [31]
Y = 8^x
For (0, 1): 1 ≠ 8^0 = 1
For (8, 1): 1 ≠ 8^8 = 16,777,216
For (2, 64): 64 = 8^2
For (0, 8): 8 ≠ 8^0 = 1

Therefore, option 3, (2, 64) is the correct answer.
