Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given the function f(x, y) = -2x² - 4y² + 8x + 8y, determine the local maxima by finding the critical points and testing them.
💡 Hint: Remember the steps for finding critical points!
You have an objective function f(x, y) = x² + y². How would you model this with constraints to find the options for minimum in the first quadrant?
💡 Hint: Visualize the first quadrant constraints to understand the behavior of your function.
