The extreme values of a function are the minimum and the maximum values of the function.
The minimum and the maximum values of f are: -4 and 46, respectively.
The given parameters are:
\(\mathbf{f(x,y) = 2x^2 + 3y^2 - 4x - 2}\)
\(\mathbf{x^2 + y^2 \le 16}\)
Find the gradient of F(x,y).
\(\mathbf{f_x(x) = 4x - 4}\)
\(\mathbf{f_y(y) = 6y}\)
Set to 0, to solve for x and y
\(\mathbf{4x - 4 = 0}\)
\(\mathbf{4x = 4}\)
\(\mathbf{x = 1}\)
\(\mathbf{6y = 0}\)
\(\mathbf{y = 0}\)
So, the critical points are:
\(\mathbf{(x,y) = (1,0)}\)
Calculate the gradients of \(\mathbf{x^2 + y^2 \le 16}\)
\(\mathbf{g_x = 2x}\)
\(\mathbf{g_y = 2y}\)
Equate the gradients as follows
\(\mathbf{f_x(x) = \lambda g_x(x)}\)
\(\mathbf{f_y(y) = \lambda g_y(y)}\)
So, we have:
\(\mathbf{4x - 2 = \lambda \cdot 2x}\)
\(\mathbf{6y = \lambda \cdot 0}\)
\(\mathbf{6y = 0}\)
Divide both sides by 6
\(\mathbf{y = 0}\)
Substitute \(\mathbf{y = 0}\) in \(\mathbf{x^2 + y^2 = 16}\)
\(\mathbf{x^2 + 0^2 = 16}\)
\(\mathbf{x^2 = 16}\)
Take square roots
\(\mathbf{x = \pm4}\)
So, we have:
\(\mathbf{(x,y) = \{(1,0)(4,0)(-4,0)\}}\)
Substitute these values in \(\mathbf{f(x,y) = 2x^2 + 3y^2 - 4x - 2}\)
\(\mathbf{f(1,0) = 2(1)^2 + 3(0)^2 - 4(1) - 2 =-4}\)
\(\mathbf{f(4,0) = 2(4)^2 + 3(0)^2 - 4(4) - 2 =14}\)
\(\mathbf{f(-4,0) = 2(-4)^2 + 3(0)^2 - 4(-4) - 2 = 46}\)
Hence, the minimum and the maximum values of f are: -4 and 46, respectively.
