Question
Consider the function f(x,y)=e8xx28yy2. Find and classify all critical points of the function. If there are more blanks than critical points, leave the remaining entries blank.
fx=
fy=
fxx=
fxy=
fyy=
The critical point with the smallest x-coordinate is (_,_ ) Classification:________ (local minimum, local maximum, saddle point, cannot be determined)
The critical point with the next smallest x-coordinate is (____,____ ) Classification:________ (local minimum, local maximum, saddle point, cannot be determined)
Explanation / Answer
f(x,y)=e8x-x2-8y-y2
fx=8e8x-2x
fy=-8-2y
fxx=64e8x-2
fyy=-2
for critical point,
fx and fy should must be 0.
so,
8e8x-2x=0 and
-8-2y=0
y=-4
but there is no points for the x which satisfies the given condition.
