Q. 1 : Examine the maximum and minimum on the surface : z = x2 + y2 – 10x – 2y + 36 and find the minimum value of z. Soln.: Tips : z = x2 + y2 – 10x – 2y + 36 For maxima–minima, on the surface, we have z y

z x

= 0,

z x

= 2x – 10 = 0

… (1)

z y

= 2y – 2 = 0

… (2)

=0

Solving equation (1) and equation (2), 2x – 10 = 0 or x = 5 2y – 2 = 0 or y = 1 Thus the point to be examined is (5, 1) Now let us find r, s, t from equations (1) and (2) r=

 rt – s2 = 2(2) – 02 = 4 > 0 Further r = 2 > 0 Hence there is a minimum at (5, 1). 1

To find this minimum value put x = 5, y = 1 in the given expression for z. z = x2 + y2 – 10x – 2y + 36

i.e.

Tip 6

zmin= 25 + 1 – 50 – 2 + 36 = 10 Ans.:

Minimum value at (5, 1) is 10 units.

Q. 2) : Examine the maximum and minimum on the surface : z = x3 + 3xy2 – 15y2 – 15y2 + 72x Soln.: z = x3 + 3xy1 – 15x – 15y2 + 72x For maximum-minimum on the surface

= 0,

z x

= 3x2 + 3y2 – 30x + 72 = 0 z y

=0

= 6xy – 30y = 0

From equation (2) we get 6y(x – 5) = 0 or y(x – 5) = 0 

y = 0 and x = 5

From equation (1), when y = 0 3x2 – 30 x + 72 = 0 

3(x – 4) (x – 6) = 0



x = 4, x = 6

Thus the points are (4, 0), (6, 0)

The points are (5, 1), (5, –1)

Thus the points to be examined are (4, 0), (6, 0), (5, 1), (5, –1) rt – s2 = (6x – 30)2 – 36 y2 = 36 {(x – 5)2 – y2} (a) at (4, 0) rt – s2 = 36 {1} > 0 and r = 24 – 30 = –6 < 0 

There is a minimum.

(b) at (6, 0) rt – s2 = 36 (1) > 0 and r = 36 – 30 > 0 

There is a minimum.

(c) at (5, 1) rt – s2 = 36 (–1) < 0 

no maximum and no minimum.

No maximum and no minimum. (a) Maximum at (4, 0),

(b) Minimum at (6, 0), (c) No maximum and no minimum at (5, 1), (d) No maximum and no minimum at (5, –1). Q. 3) : Examine the maximum and minimum on the surface : z = x3 + y3 – 3axy. (Dec. 2003) Slon.: 3

… (1) (2)

Multiply equation (1) by x and equation (2) by y and subtract to get x3 – axy = 0 y3 – axy = 0 or

x3 – y3 = 0 or x = y



From equation (1), x2 – ax = 0

or

x (x – a) = 0

So that x = 0, x = a 

from equation (1), y = 0, y = a

The points to be examined are (0, 0) and (a, a) Now r =

… (2)

y = 0 or x = 1

For y = 0 from x2 + y2 – 2x = 0, we get x2 – 2x = 0 or x(x – 2) = 0 or x = 0, x = 21  The points are (0, 0) or (2, 0) and for x = 1 from x2 + y2 – 2x = 0, we get y2 – 1 = 0 or y =  1 

The points are (1, 1), (1, –1) 5

Thus rt – s2 = (6x – 6)2 – 36y2 (a) at (0, 0), rt – s2 = 36 > 0, and r = –6 < 0. Hence there is a maximum at (0, 0) (b) at (2, 0) rt – s2 = 6. 6 – 02 = 36 > 0, r = 6 < 0. Hence there is minimum at (2, 0) (c) at (1, 1), rt – s2 = 0 – 36 < 0. There is no maximum and no minimum (d) at (1, –1), rt – s2 = –36< 0. There is no maximum and no minimum at (1, –1). Ans.:

If S is the surface area of the box, then S = xy + 2yz + 2zx, (since the top with sides x and y are open.) We want the minimum of S, for which S x
