3. A manufacturer has an order for 1000 units that can be produced at two locations. Let x and y be the number of units produced at the two plants. Use the Method of Lagrange Multipliers to find the number of units that should be produced at each plant to minimize the cost if the cost function is given by: C()0.25x2+10x +0.15y2 + 12y + 5000 4. Find the dimensions that will minimize the surface area of a rectangular box with an o having a volume of 32 cubic feet. Use the Method of Lagrange Multipliers.

Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
Question
Solve Q#3 and #4.
