If I wanted to find a point that has minimum squared distance to four other points, how would I formulate the minimization problem, Also if I had the same problem but with a restriction that the distance from the origin must be at least 20m, how would I include that? would it mean that x^2+y^2>=20?

Problem 5. Find the local marimum and minimum values and saddle point(s) of the functions: i) f(x,y) = x2 + xy + y2 + y. a) f(x, y) = (x - y)(1 - x). ui) (Optional) f(0,y) = xy +e-zy. Note that the critical points are (2,0) and (0,y) and that f(x,0) = f(0, y) = 1. However, from Math 110, we can show that the function gw) = w+e-w has an absolute mim at w = 0i.e., g(w) >...
Problem 2 (1.1.5, 4 points): Find the rectangular parallelepiped of unit volume that has the minimum surface area. Hint: By eliminating one of the dimensions, show that the problem is equivalent to the minimization over > 0 and y > 0 of f(x,y) =xy +-+- Show that the sets {(x,y) I f(x,y) x > 0, y > 0} are compact for all scalars γ.

9 Geometry via calculus In this exercise you will see one way to use calculus to do grometry a) Here is one way to find the perpendicsler distance from a point to a line L (no caleulus yet) Let's say L has equation y-3r+2 and the point is (2.1) First, make a graph (picture) of the situation 2Now find an equation for the line AM through (2, 1) perpendicular to L (draw it first, of course). 3. Find the (coordinates...
True (T) or False (F) - 5 points (NO NEED TO EXPLAIN, JUST SAY WHETHER IT IS TRUE OR FALSE) B. 1. R-squared never decreases when you add more regressors. In panel data we can observe many individuals across more than one point in time. 2. 3. We want to test the effect of a speed limit change in New Mexico. When choosing a control state, we should try to find a state that also had a change in speed...
In F=ma when summing the forces, I know they must all be in the same direction (along with the acceleration), but should they all be acting on a single point also (or acting relative to a point)? So if you had two forces acting on an object and say one is acting on the center and one is acting on some distance from the end, you must set up an origin point, and have two position vectors from the origin...
In the United States, tyre tread depth is measured in 32nds of an inch. Car tyres typically start out with 10/32 to 11/32 of an inch of tread depth. In most states, a tyre is legally worn out when its tread depth reaches 2/32 of an inch. A random sample of four tyres provides the following data on distance driven and tread depth: Distance driven Tread Depth (32nds of an inch) Tyre (10,000 kilometres) 2 3 4 4 4 4...
