Mixed numbers are greater than one. it wouldn't make sense for a mixed number to be less than one, because then it would just be a regular fraction.

you can only get a bigger number if you divide by a number less than one. that means you can't divide 15 by a mixed number and get a bigger number.

A flat circular plate has the shape of the region x squared plus y squared less than or equals 1x2+y2≤1. the​ plate, including t
vredina [299]

You're looking for the extreme values of x^2+3y^2+13x subject to the constraint x^2+y^2\le1.

The target function has partial derivatives (set equal to 0)

\dfrac{\partial(x^2+3y^2+13x)}{\partial x}=2x+13=0\implies x=-\dfrac{13}2

\dfrac{\partial(x^2+3y^2+13x)}{\partial y}=6y=0\implies y=0

so there is only one critical point at \left(-\dfrac{13}2,0\right). But this point does not fall in the region x^2+y^2\le1. There are no extreme values in the region of interest, so we check the boundary.

Parameterize the boundary of x^2+y^2\le1 by

x=\cos u

y=\sin u

with 0\le u. Then t(x,y) can be considered a function of u alone:

t(x,y)=t(\cos u,\sin u)=T(u)

T(u)=\cos^2u+3\sin^2u+13\cos u

T(u)=3+13\cos u-2\cos^2u

T(u) has critical points where T'(u)=0:

T'(u)=-13\sin u+4\sin u\cos u=\sin u(4\cos u-13)=0

(1)\quad\sin u=0\implies u=0,u=\pi

(2)\quad4\cos u-13=0\implies\cos u=\dfrac{13}4

but |\cos u|\le1 for all u, so this case yields nothing important.

At these critical points, we have temperatures of

T(0)=14

T(\pi)=-12

so the plate is hottest at (1, 0) with a temperature of 14 (degrees?) and coldest at (-1, 0) with a temp of -12.
