(b) Verify that Eq. (13.7) yields the same results based on initial guesses of
(a)
To calculate: The maximum value of the function and the corresponding value of variable
Answer to Problem 1P
Solution:
The maximum value of the function
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
The function
Calculation:
Evaluate the first order derivative of the function
Equate equation (1) to zero and evaluate critical point.
Therefore, a critical point is at
Evaluate the second order derivative of the function
The sign of the second order derivative at
Substitute
Hence, the maximum value of the function at
