Answer:

(x-6)/(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x^2-4x-12)=(x^2+2x-6x-12)

X(X+2)-6(X+2)

(x-6)(X+2)

(x^2-4)

= (x-2)(x+2)

(x-6)(X+2)/(x-2)(X+2)

(x-6)/(x-2)

This extreme value problem has a solution with both a maximum value and a minimum value. use lagrange multipliers to find the ex

noname [10]

$L(x,y,z,\lambda)=10x+10y+2z+\lambda(5x^2+5y^2+2z^2-42)$

$L_x=10+10\lambda x=0\implies1+\lambda x=0$

$L_y=10+10\lambda y=0\implies1+\lambda y=0$

$L_z=2+4\lambda z=0\implies1+2\lambda z=0$

$L_\lambda=5x^2+5y^2+2z^2-42=0$

$\begin{cases}L_x=0\\L_y=0\\L_z=0\end{cases}\implies1+\lambda x=1+\lambda y=1+2\lambda z=0\implies x=y=2z$

$5x^2+5y^2+2z^2=5(2z)^2+5(2z)^2+2z^2=42z^2=42\implies z^2=1$

$z^2=1\implies z=\pm1\implies x=y=\pm2$

There are two critical points, at which we have

$f\left(2,2,1\right)=42\text{ (a maximum value)}$

$f\left(-2,-2,-1\right)=-42\text{ (a minimum value)}$
