Each problem is worth 3 points.
1. Find the highest and lowest points on f(x,y) = x2+y2
subject to the constraint z=2x+2y.
2. [Stewart 12.8 #2] Find the maximum and minimum values of f(x,y) =
2x+y subject to the constraint x2+4y2=1.
3. [Stewart 12.8 #4] Find the maximum and minimum values of f(x,y) =
x2+y2 subject to the constraint x4+y4=1.
4. [Stewart 12.8 #6] Find the maximum and minimum values of f(x,y,z)
= x-y+3z subject to the constraint x2+y2+4z2=4.
5. [Based on Stewart 12.8 #18] (a) Use a graphing calculator or computer to graph the circle x2+y2=1. On the same screen graph several curves of the form x2+y=c (for various values of c) until you find three that just touch the circle. What is the significance of the values of c for these three curves?
(b) Use Lagrange multipliers to find the extreme values of f(x,y)=x2+y subject to the constraint x2+y2=1. Compare your answers to those in part (a).
