Answer:

p = -4, q = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x +4 ... (1) perpendicular bisector of AB, slope = -2

slope of AB = 1/2

Line AB pass (8,3): (y-3) / (x-8) = 1/2

AB equation: y-3 = 1/2(x-8) y = 1/2x - 1 ... (2)

(2)-(1): 5/2 x = 5 x = 2

y = 0 (2,0) intercept of bisector and AB, it is midpoint of A (8,3) and (p,q)

(8+p)/2 = 2

p = -4

(3+q)/2 = 0

q = -3

Find the maximum and minimum values attained by f(x, y, z) = 5xyz on the unit ball x2 + y2 + z2 ≤ 1.

Allushta [10]

Check for critical points within the unit ball by solving for when the first-order partial derivatives vanish:
$f_x=5yz=0\implies y=0\text{ or }z=0$
$f_y=5xz=0\implies x=0\text{ or }z=0$
$f_z=5xy=0\implies x=0\text{ or }y=0$

Taken together, we find that (0, 0, 0) appears to be the only critical point on $f$ within the ball. At this point, we have $f(0,0,0)=0$ .

Now let's use the method of Lagrange multipliers to look for critical points on the boundary. We have the Lagrangian

$L(x,y,z,\lambda)=5xyz+\lambda(x^2+y^2+z^2-1)$

with partial derivatives (set to 0)

$L_x=5yz+2\lambda x=0$
$L_y=5xz+2\lambda y=0$
$L_z=5xy+2\lambda z=0$
$L_\lambda=x^2+y^2+z^2-1=0$

We then observe that

$xL_x+yL_y+zL_z=0\implies15xyz+2\lambda=0\implies\lambda=-\dfrac{15xyz}2$

So, ignoring the critical point we've already found at (0, 0, 0),

$5yz+2\left(-\dfrac{15xyz}2\right)x=0\implies5yz(1-3x^2)=0\implies x=\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3}$
$5xz+2\left(-\dfrac{15xyz}2\right)y=0\implies5xz(1-3y^2)=0\implies y=\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3}$
$5xy+2\left(-\dfrac{15xyz}2\right)z=0\implies5xy(1-3z^2)=0\implies z=\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3}$

So ultimately, we have 9 critical points - 1 at the origin (0, 0, 0), and 8 at the various combinations of $\left(\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3},\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3},\pm\dfrac1{\sqrt3}\right)$ , at which points we get a value of either of $\pm\dfrac5{\sqrt3}$ , with the maximum being the positive value and the minimum being the negative one.

Imagine that you have the opportunity to purchase a large piece of land for $100,000, after taking out a loan. You have decided

MakcuM [25]

what is this

Step-by-step explanation:

Option #1 – charges 5% simple interest per year; this is a short-term loan for only 5-years.

Option #2 – charges 7% simple interest per year; this is a short-term loan for only 3-years.

Option #3 – charges 3.2% simple interest per year; there is no time limit on this loan (as a group determine how long you think it will take you to make enough money to be able to pay back the loan with interest)

Option #4 - charges 10% simple interest per year; only lasts 10 months
