You're looking for the extreme values of
subject to the constraint
.
The target function has partial derivatives (set equal to 0)


so there is only one critical point at
. But this point does not fall in the region
. There are no extreme values in the region of interest, so we check the boundary.
Parameterize the boundary of
by


with
. Then
can be considered a function of
alone:



has critical points where
:



but
for all
, so this case yields nothing important.
At these critical points, we have temperatures of


so the plate is hottest at (1, 0) with a temperature of 14 (degrees?) and coldest at (-1, 0) with a temp of -12.
52 weeks in a year. half that is 26 weeks. you miss 26 days a year 8 x 9.20= 73.60 x 26 = $1913.60 per year lost
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential function that decrease by 15% every time x increases by 1 is given by:

We simplify the parenthesis to get:

Therefore the decrease by 15% every time x increases by 1 is

The second choice is correct.
