I agree that of the 3 critical points, $(1,1)$ is the only one in quadrant I. Now, we know this is either a maximum or a minimum, and to determine...

MarkFL replied to a thread Lagrange Multipliers in Calculus
What I would do is use the constraint to determine $y=2-x$. Now substitute for $y$ in both equations you mentioned, and solve for $x$, then your...

You need to clarify your variables. "b = (a - b)" isn't right. Pick a variable name, say, p... Anything but that b on the LHS.... Then you have p...

MarkFL replied to a thread Lagrange Multipliers in Calculus
Okay, so what this implies is: \frac{x}{\sqrt{6-x^2-y^2}}=\frac{y}{\sqrt{6-x^2-y^2}} Cross-multiply: x\sqrt{6-x^2-y^2}=y\sqrt{6-x^2-y^2} ...
