Answer:

The maximum value is 1/27 and the minimum value is 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the given function is equal to (xyz)^2 then it means that it is positive i.e f(x,y,z)\geq 0.

Consider the function F(x,y,z,\lambda)=x^2y^2z^2-\lambda (x^2+y^2+z^2-1)

We want that the gradient of this function  is equal to zero. That is (the calculations in between are omitted)

\frac{\partial F}{\partial x} = 2x(y^2z^2 - \lambda)=0

\frac{\partial F}{\partial y} = 2y(x^2z^2 - \lambda)=0

\frac{\partial F}{\partial z} = 2z(x^2y^2 - \lambda)=0

\frac{\partial F}{\partial \lambda} = (x^2+y^2+z^2-1)=0

Note that the last equation is our restriction. The restriction guarantees us that at least one of the variables is non-zero. We've got 3 options, either 1, 2 or none of them are zero.

If any of them is zero, we have that the value of the original function is 0. We just need to check that there exists a value for lambda.

Suppose that x is zero. Then, from the second and third equation we have that

-2y\lambda = -2z\lambda. If lambda is not zero, then y =z. But, since -2y\lambda=0 and lambda is not zero, this implies that x=y=z=0 which is not possible. This proofs that if one of the variables is 0, then lambda is zero. So, having one or two variables equal to zero are feasible solutions for the problem.

Suppose that only x is zero, then we have the solution set y^2+z^2=1.

If both x,y are zero, then we have the solution set z^2=1. We can find the different solution sets by choosing the variables that are set to zero.

NOw, suppose that none of the variables are zero.

From the first and second equation we have that

\lambda = y^2z^2 = x^2z^2 which implies x^2=y^2

Also, from the first and third equation we have that

\lambda = y^2z^2 = x^2y^2 which implies x^2=z^2

So, in this case, replacing this in the restriction we have 3z^2=1, which gives as another solution set. On this set, we have x^2=y^2=z^2=\frac{1}{3}. Over this solution set, we have that the value of our function is \frac{1}{3^3}= \frac{1}{27}

In AWXY, m_W = (10x +17), m_X = (2x – 9)", and m_Y = (3x + 7)º.<br> Find mZY
ella [17]

Answer:

m\angle Y=40^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose we have a triangle WXY whose internal angles are:

m\angle W = 10x+17

m\angle X=2x-9

m\angle Y=3x+7

The sum of the measures of the angles must be 180°, thus:

10x+17 + 2x-9+3x+7=180

Simplifying:

15x + 15 = 180

Subtracting 15:

15x = 165

Dividing by 15:

x = 11

Thus, the measure of angle Y is

m\angle Y=3x+7=3*11+7=33+7=40

\mathbf{m\angle Y=40^\circ}

Oliver had m dollars to spend on a backpack for the new school year. The expression below represents the amount of money he had
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Y is the amount of back pack

The total amount is represented by m

If Y is the cost of back pack purchased by Oliver, then 0.7 Y is the tax applicable on the purchase of back pack

Hence, the remaining cost would be total amount with Oliver minus the cost of back pack and the tax applicable on the purchase of back pack

Remaining cost  = m - (y + 0.07y)

Hence, option A is correct

What is 8.7 divided by 53.07 step by step?
tresset_1 [31]

Shift the decimal points of both 8.7 and 53.07 to the right by 2 decimal places.

(This is needed to convert 53.07 to 5307, since long division must divide by a whole number.)

870/5307

Set up the long division.

5307|870

Therefore your answer should be 0.1639.

Hope I help! Please check my questions please. I need major help on the question.

Solve the system of linear equations using elimination.
N76 [4]

Answer:

C (-2,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

−2x − y = 3 (1)

−9x − y = 17 (2)

(1) y = -2x - 3

(2) y = -9x - 17

-2x - 3 = -9x - 17

7x = -14

x = -2

y = -2(-2) - 3

y = 4 - 3

y = 1
