Maxima and Minima with Side Conditions The Method of Lagrange Let f be a function of two or three variables which is continuously differentiable on some open set U. We take C:r=r(t),teI to be a curve that lies entirely in Uand has at each point a nonzero tangent vector r'(t). if xo maximizes (or minimizes)f(x)on C. then Vf(xo)is perpendicular to C at xo.

if xo maximizes (or minimizes)f(x)subject to the side condition g(x)=0,then Vf(xo)and Vg(xo)are parallel.Thus,if Vg(xo)≠0,then there exists a scalar入such that Vf(xo)=入Vg(xo). Such a scalar A has come to be called a Lagrange multiplier g川财 level curves: f(.y) C:g(x.y)=0 Figure 16.7.3 Main Meny C
