The Lagrangian is

L(x,y,z,\lambda)=x^2y^2z^2+\lambda(x^2+y^2+z^2-1)

where we assume \lambda\neq0, with critical points wherever the partial derivatives are identically zero:

L_x=2xy^2z^2+2\lambda x=0\implies2x(y^2z^2+\lambda)=0\implies x=0\text{ or }y^2z^2=-\lambda

(note that the latter case requires \lambda, and we'll see the same requirement in the next two equations)

L_y=2x^2yz^2+2\lambda y=0\implies2y(x^2z^2+\lambda)=0\implies y=0\text{ or }x^2z^2=-\lambda

L_z=2x^2y^2z+2\lambda z=0\implies2z(x^2y^2+\lambda)=0\implies z=0\text{ or }x^2y^2=-\lambda

L_\lambda=x^2+y^2+z^2-1=0

If either x=0, y=0, or z=0, then we can throw out the latter cases for L_x=0, L_y=0, and L_z=0, since we don't want \lambda=0. If, for instance, we pick x=y=0, then we're left with z^2=1\implies z=\pm1, for which f(x,y,z)=0. This means we have 6 critical points (x,y,z) where two of the coordinates are 0, and the remaining one is either 1 or -1.

In the latter case,

y^2z^2=x^2z^2=-\lambda\implies x^2=y^2\implies x=\pm y

x^2z^2=x^2y^2=-\lambda\implies z^2=y^2\implies y=\pm z

y^2z^2=x^2y^2=-\lambda\implies x^2=z^2\implies z=\pm x

If x=y=z, then

3x^2=1\implies x=y=z=\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3}

A similar thing happens in all the other cases, which leads us to getting 8 possible critical points, \left(\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3},\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3},\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3}\right); at each of these points, we have f(x,y,z)=\dfrac1{27}.

To summarize: f(x,y,z) has a maximum value of 1/27 and a minimum value of 0.

A developer wants to develop a 25-acre subdivision. He figures that the streets and common area will take up about 35% of this o
Lorico [155]
The amount avaliable for division into lots is
  25 ac - 0.35*25 ac = 0.65*25 ac = 16.25 ac
There are 43,560 ft² in an acre, so the number of possible lots is
  (16.25 ac)*(43,560 ft²/ac)/(25,000 ft²/lot) = 28.314 lots

The developer has enough area for 28 lots.

The speed s that Brent can ride his bike if he rides 3 − 5 of an hour and travels 4 miles is given by the equation 4 = 3 − 5 s.
alex41 [277]
His speed is 6 2/3 mi/hr.

Our equation is 4 = 3/5s; to solve this, we want to divide both sides by 3/5:

4 ÷ 3/5 = (3/5s) ÷ 3/5
4/1 ÷ 3/5 = s
4/1 × 5/3 = s
20/3 = s
6 2/3 = s

Virty [35]

Answer:

gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

A gallon is  a measuring unit used to measure the liquid capacity. It helps in measuring the volume and capacity of a fluid. The capacity of one gallon is equivalent to 3.79 liters. It is used to denote the measurement of approximately four liters of liquid.  

Mrs. Larivierre had filled a tub with water. To measure the water content of the tub, the most appropriate unit would be a gallon.
