# 11.8 – Lagrange Multipliers 1. Consider the problem of maximizing the function \( f(x, y) = 2x + 3y \) subject to the constraint \( \sqrt{x} + \sqrt{y} = 5 \). a. Try using Lagrange multipliers to maximize the function. b. Calculate \( f(25,0) \) and compare the result to the answer in part (a). c. Explain why Lagrange multipliers did not find the function’s maximum value.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Lagrange's Multiplier: Let  the function is z=f(x, y) subject to constraint g(x,y).

To find extreme point we have simply the equations 

∇f(x,y,z)=λ∇g(x,y,z).

where λ is known as Lagrange's multiplier.
