The critical points of <em>h(x,y)</em> occur wherever its partial derivatives h_x and h_y vanish simultaneously. We have

h_x = 8-4y-8x = 0 \implies y=2-2x \\\\ h_y = 10-4x-12y^2 = 0 \implies 2x+6y^2=5

Substitute <em>y</em> in the second equation and solve for <em>x</em>, then for <em>y</em> :

2x+6(2-2x)^2=5 \\\\ 24x^2-46x+19=0 \\\\ \implies x=\dfrac{23\pm\sqrt{73}}{24}\text{ and }y=\dfrac{1\mp\sqrt{73}}{12}

This is to say there are two critical points,

(x,y)=\left(\dfrac{23+\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1-\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)\text{ and }(x,y)=\left(\dfrac{23-\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1+\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)

To classify these critical points, we carry out the second partial derivative test. <em>h(x,y)</em> has Hessian

H(x,y) = \begin{bmatrix}h_{xx}&h_{xy}\\h_{yx}&h_{yy}\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}-8&-4\\-4&-24y\end{bmatrix}

whose determinant is 192y-16. Now,

• if the Hessian determinant is negative at a given critical point, then you have a saddle point

• if both the determinant and h_{xx} are positive at the point, then it's a local minimum

• if the determinant is positive and h_{xx} is negative, then it's a local maximum

• otherwise the test fails

We have

\det\left(H\left(\dfrac{23+\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1-\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)\right) = -16\sqrt{73} < 0

while

\det\left(H\left(\dfrac{23-\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1+\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)\right) = 16\sqrt{73}>0 \\\\ \text{ and } \\\\ h_{xx}\left(\dfrac{23+\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1-\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)=-8 < 0

So, we end up with

h\left(\dfrac{23+\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1-\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)=-\dfrac{4247+37\sqrt{73}}{72} \text{ (saddle point)}\\\\\text{ and }\\\\h\left(\dfrac{23-\sqrt{73}}{24},\dfrac{1+\sqrt{73}}{12}\right)=-\dfrac{4247-37\sqrt{73}}{72} \text{ (local max)}

You have the formula. Put in the numbers and solve for r.

The interest earned in 4 years on 5000 is (6500 -5000) = 1500.
.. I = Prt
.. 1500 = 5000*r*4
.. 1500/20000 = r = .075 = 7.5% . . . . . . matches selection B

Is the binomial a factor of the polynomial function? f(x)=x3+2x2−16x−32
goblinko [34]
Since it is x^3 cubed it has 3 maximum roots
by the zero multiplication property of function
if you plug find a root then you can deduce it is a factor in other words if f(x)=(x-a)(x-b)
then f(a)=0 and f(b)=0
so
f(2)=8+8-32-32= -48 therefore it is not a factor
f(-2)=-8+8+32-32=0 hence it is a factor
f(4)=64+32-64-32=0 it is a factor
f(-4)=-64+32+64-32=0 it is a factor
f(-6) it is not a factor via the fundmental therom of algebra
f(x)=(x+2)(x-4)(x+4)
=(x^2-16)(x+2)=x^3+2x^2-16x-32 which checks our work
