Question: `qQuery problem 7.5.10 extrema of x^2+6xy+10y^2-4y+4

List the relative extrema and the saddle points of the function and tell which is which, and how you obtained each.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

fx(x,y) = 2x + 6y

fy(x,y) = 6x + 20y – 4

Equating to zero:

2x + 6y = 0

6x + 20y = 4

---------------

(-3)2x + 6y = 0(-3)

6x + 20y = 4

----------------

2y = 4

y = 2

y(2) = 2x + 6(2) = 0

2x + 12 = 0

2x = -12

x = -6

Point of Critical Numbers: (-6, 2)

Critical Points:

x^2+6xy+10y^2-4y+4 = -6^2 + 6(-6)(2) + 10(4) – 4(2) + 4

z = 0, minimum

(-6, 2, 0)

Given Solution:

`a fx = 2x + 6y ; fy = 6x + 20 y - 4, where fx and fy mean x and y partial derivatives of f.

fxx is the x derivative of fx and is therefore 2

fyy is the y derivative of fy and is therefore 20

fxy is the y derivative of fx and is therefore 6. Note that fyx is the x derivative of fy and is therefore 6. fxy and fyx are always the same, provided the derivatives exist.

fx = 0 and fy = 0 if

2x + 6y = 0 and

6x + 20y - 4 = 0.

This is a system of two equations in two unknowns. You can solve the system by any of several methods. Multiplying the first equation by -3 and adding the resulting equations, for example, gives you 2 y = 4 so that y = 2. Substituting y = 2 into the first equation gives you 2x + 6 * 2 = 0, which has solution x = 6.

Whatever method you use, the solution of this system is x = -6, y = 2.

To determine the nature of the critical point at (-6, 2) you have to look at fxx, fyy and fxy. We have

fxx = 2

fyy = 20

fxy = 6.

This is a system of two equations in two unknowns. You can solve the system by any of several methods. Multiplying the first equation by -3 and adding the resulting equations, for example, gives you 2 y = 4 so that y = 2. Substituting y = 2 into the first equation gives you 2x + 6 * 2 = 0, which has solution x = -6.

Whatever method you use, the solution of this system is x = -6, y = 2.

To determine the nature of the critical point at (-6, 2) you have to evaluate the quantity fxx * fyy - 4 fxy^2.

We have

fxx = 2

fyy = 20

fxy = 6.

So fxx * fyy - fxy^2 = 2 * 20 - 6^2 = 4.

This quantity is positive, so you have either a maximum or a minimum.

Since fxx and fyy are both positive the graph is concave upward in all directions and the point is a minimum.

The coordinates of the point are (-6, 2, (-6)^2+6 * (-6) * 2 + 10* 2^2 - 4 * 2 + 4 ) = (-6, 2, 0)

Question: `qQuery problem 7.5.28 extrema of x^3+y^3 -3x^2+6y^2+3x+12y+7

List the relative extrema and the saddle points of the function and tell which is which, and how you obtained each.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

fx(x,y) = 3x^2 -6x + 3

3x^2 – 6x + 3 = 0

3(x^2-3x+1) = 0

(x-1)^2 = 0

x = 1

fy(x,y) = 3y^2 + 12y + 12

3(y^2 +4y +4) = 0

-4 + - [sqrt] 16 – 16 / 2

Y = -2

(1, -2)

We have:

X = 1

Y = -2

(1,-2) = x^3+y^3-3x^2+6y^2+3x+12y+7

z = 0

(1, -2, 0)

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a We have fx = 3 x^2 + 6 x + 3 and fy = 3 y^2 + 12 y + 12.

Factoring we get

fx = 3 ( x^2 - 2x + 1) = 3 ( x-1)^2 and

fy = 3 ( y^2 + 4y + 4) = 3 ( y+2)^2.

So

fx = 0 when 3(x-1)^2 = 0, or x = 1 and

fy = 0 when 3(y+2)^2 = 0 or y = -2.

We get

fxx = 6 x - 6 (the x derivative of fx)

fyy = 6 y + 12 (the y derivative of fy) and

fxy = 0 (the y derivative of fx, which is also equal to fyx, the x derivative of fy)

At the critical point x = 1, y = -2 we get fxx = fyy = 0. So the test for max, min and critical point gives us fxx*fyy - fxy^2 = 0, which is inconclusive--it tells us nothing about max, min or saddle point.
