Drawing the graph in 3d you see endless "mountains and valleys" which logic tells me there will also be infinite max min points in 2d regardless of where you slice the graph. apparently this is wrong and there is a finite max/min points in R^2/2D. Please note this problem does not have a domain...
Hello,
I hope I'm in the right topic.

First I took the partial derivatives (f'x=0 and f'y=0) and got x=-1 or 1 and y=0 but these values are outside our definition right?

edit: maybe its f(1, 3) is max?

Problem Statement: ##2x^2 + y^2 = 4##
Max and min of
##4x + y^2## ?
Relevant Equations: F'(x) = 0
To find critical point
X = 0 -> y = +- 2
Y =0 -> x = +- ##\sqrt 2##
I input that
Find f(xy) = 4 and f(xy) = +-##4\sqrt 2##
To find with derivative i find both x and y are zero
The answer is wrong
X-1 > 0
x>1
$x^2$ - 2x >0
X>2
For 0<x<1
f(x) = -x +1 + -$x^2 $ +2x
For 1<x<2
f(x) = x -1 - $x^2 $ + 2x
Find each of the equation the critical point
By using f'(x) = 0
And decide which is max and min
I get x = 1/2 and x = 3/2
But it's wrong
Why?
