Answer:

x=2/3, y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 7y = 2,

6x - 5y = 4

Make the x coefficient the same in both equations.

3x + 7y = 2

(whole thing multiplied by 2)

6x + 14y = 4

Now subtract the equations to eliminate the x variable.

6x + 14y = 4

-(6x - 5y = 4)

19y = 0

y = 0

Substitute 0 for y in one of the equations.

3x + 7(0) = 2

3x = 2

x = 2/3

Use Lagrange multipliers to find the maximum and minimum values of

marusya05 [52]

The Lagrangian is

$L(x,y,\lambda)=x+8y+\lambda(x^2+y^2-4)$

It has critical points where the first order derivatives vanish:

$L_x=1+2\lambda x=0\implies\lambda=-\dfrac1{2x}$

$L_y=8+2\lambda y=0\implies\lambda=-\dfrac4y$

$L_\lambda=x^2+y^2-4=0$

From the first two equations we get

$-\dfrac1{2x}=-\dfrac4y\implies y=8x$

Then

$x^2+y^2=65x^2=4\implies x=\pm\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}}\implies y=\pm\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}$

At these critical points, we have

$f\left(\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}},\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}\right)=2\sqrt{65}\approx16.125$ (maximum)

$f\left(-\dfrac2{\sqrt{65}},-\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{65}}\right)=-2\sqrt{65}\approx-16.125$ (minimum)
