### Method of Lagrange Multipliers

To find the maximum and minimum values of \( f(x, y, z) \) subject to the constraint \( g(x, y, z) = k \) [assuming that these extreme values exist and \( \nabla g \neq 0 \) on the surface \( g(x, y, z) = k \)]:

(a) **Find all values of \( x, y, z, \) and \( \lambda \) such that**

\[
\nabla f(x, y, z) = \lambda \nabla g(x, y, z)
\]

and

\[
g(x, y, z) = k
\]

(b) **Evaluate \( f \) at all the points \( (x, y, z) \) that result from step (a).** The largest of these values is the maximum value of \( f \); the smallest is the minimum value of \( f \).
