Suppose that a temperature of a metal plate is given by T(x,y)=x2+2x+y2, for points (x,y) on the 
elliptic plate defined by 6x2+5y2≤60. Find the maximum and minimum temperatures on the plate. 
Use Lagrange Multipliers to determine the absolute extrema of f on the indicated constraint.

Theorem 6.
Let f be a differentiable function defined on an open set O c R", n = 2,3 and let 7 (t), tel,
be a smooth parameterized curve C that lies entirely in O. If Po= F(to) is a point on C where
f has a local maximum or minimum value relative to the values off on C, then
of (P₁)
(t
-(to) = 0

Theorem 8. Lagrange Multipliers in R²
Let f and g be differentiable functions defined on a common domain Dc R² which is an
open set. For a given constant k let C denote the level curve defined by g(x, y) = k and assume
Vg 0 on C. If there is a point P on C where f restricted to the level curve C has a local
maximum or minimum value, then P satisfies the following three equations
fx(P) = Agx(P), fy(P) = Ag,(P), g(P) = k
