D=dog's weight
c=cat's weight
d=7c
d+c=72
sub 7c for d
7c+c=72
8c=72
divide both sides by 8
c=9
d=7c
d=7(9)
d=63
dog=63lb

Find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the following function in the closed region bounded by the triangle with vertice
alukav5142 [94]

f(x,y)=2x^2-8x+y^2-8y+2

f_x(x,y)=4x-8=0\implies x=2

f_y(x,y)=2y-8=0\implies y=4

There is one critical point at (2, 4), but this point happens to fall on one of the boundaries of the region. We'll get to that point in a moment.

Along the boundary x=0, we have

f(0,y)=y^2-8y+2=(y-4)^2-14

which attains a maximum value of

f(0,4)=-14

Along y=44, we have

f(x,44)=2x^2-8x+1586=2(x-2)^2+1578

which attains a maximum of

f(2,44)=1578

Along y=2x, we have

f(x,2x)=6x^2-24x+2=6(x-2)^2-22

which attains a maximum of

f(2,4)=-22

So over the given region, the absolute maximum of f(x,y) is 1578 at (2, 44).

Please help me on this problem !
Rashid [163]

Answer:

x = 5 , y = 5\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine and cosine ratios in the right triangle and exact values.

sin30° = \frac{1}{2} , cos30° = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} , then

sin30°= \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{x}{10} = \frac{1}{2} ( cross- multiply )

2x = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 5

and

cos30° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{y}{10} = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} ( cross- multiply )

2y = 10\sqrt{3} ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 5\sqrt{3}
