$\frac{4}{3} = \frac{51}{n} \\ = > \frac{3}{4} = \frac{n}{51 } \\ = > n = \frac{3}{4} \times 51 \\ = > n = \frac{153}{4} \\ = > n = 38 \frac{1}{4}$

Hope you could get an idea from here.

We have a system of equations in two variables, namely, a and c. Use the substitution to find a and c.

Given that $x+y=1$ , we have $y=1-x$ , so that

$f(x,y)=x^2+y^2\iff g(x)=x^2+(1-x)^2$

Take the derivative and find the critical points of $g$ :

$g'(x)=2x-2(1-x)=4x-2=0\implies x=\dfrac12$

Take the second derivative and evaluate it at the critical point:

$g''(x)=4>0$

Since $g''$ is positive for all $x$ , the critical point is a minimum.

At the critical point, we get the minimum value $g\left(\frac12\right)=f\left(\frac12,\frac12\right)=\frac12$ .
