Y = -2 x - 9
3 x - 4(-2 x - 9 ) = -8
3 x + 8 x + 36 = - 8
11 x = - 44, x = - 4
y = 8 - 9 , y = -1
This is a unique solution, the system is independent.
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute values for x until they all work.
A. y = 2 x 2 + 5 = 9 fail
B. y = 2 x 2 - 6 = -2 fail
C. y = -2 x 2 - 5 = -9 fail
D. y = -0.5 x 2 - 5 = -6 ok
y = -0.5 x 5 - 5 = -7.5 ok
y = -0.5 x 6 - 5 = -8 ok
What's the question? there isn't enough info to help.
The Lagrangian,
has critical points where its partial derivatives vanish:
tells us 
, so that
Then with 
, we get
and 
tells us
Then there are two critical points, 
. The critical point with the negative 
-coordinates gives the maximum value, 
.
