Solution:
Here we need to find the critical points and maximum and minimum of the function
Now let us come to our problem.
Given f(x,y) = x^2-4xy+y^3+4y
fx= 2x- 4y
and fy= -4x+3y^2+4
To find the critical points we have to make fx=0 and fy=0
2x-4y=0 and -4x+3y^2+4 =0
x= 2y ------ 1
and x = 3/4(y^2) +1 ---------2
From 1 and 2 we get,
2y = ¾ (y^2)+1
2y = 0.75y^2+1
0.75y^2 -2y +1 =0
The quadratic equation
a x2 + b x + c = 0
can always be solved by substituting the coefficients a , b and c into the quadratic formula :
________________________________________ ________________________________________
-b ± b2 - 4 a c
x = ________________________________________ ________________________________________
2 a
To make the following working a bit clearer, we can rewrite the equation
0.75 x2 - 2 x + 1 = 0
as
0.75 x2 + (-2) x + 1 = 0.
