m Signature: ___________________________________ Instructions: There are two sections, Section A and Section B. Section A has questions from 1 to 5; Section

 

B has questions from 6 to 10. Do 3 out of 5 questions from each section. There is 1 bonus question. You

 

may attempt to do that. Write all your answers in the booklet that you have been provided. Make

 

sure you show your work. Writing down only answers will give you at most 10% (if correct). You may

 

use your non-programmable calculator. You have 75 minutes. So keep your eyes on your own exam.

 

Time is your only constraint. Good luck! Section A (Do any 3 out of 5 questions. Each is worth 10 points.)

 

1. Consider the function f (x; y) below: f (x; y) = x3 + 2xy 5x y2 a) Compute the partial derivatives of the ?rst and second order. b) Compute the stationary points of f (x; y) and classify them into local maximum points, local minimum points, or saddle points. Th 2. Consider the function f (x; y) below: f (x; y) = 2x2 + 2xy y 2 + 18x 14y a) Find the stationary point of f (x; y): b) Prove that the stationary point you ?nd in (a) is the global maximum point of f (x; y): 3. Find all the stationary points of the function f (x; y) below and classify them into local maximum

 

points, local minimum points, or saddle points.
