6. Find the absolute minimum of f(x, y) = x 2 + y 2 + 2y − 1 on D = {(x, y)|x 2 + y 2 4 ≤ 1} 7. Use Lagrange multipliers to find the maximum and minimum values of the function subject to the given constraint(s). a) f(x, y, z) = xyz; x 2 + 2y 2 + 3z 2 = 6 b) f(x, y, z) = yz + xy; xy = 1, y2 + z 2 = 1 8. Find the first four terms in the Taylor series expansion of the function: f(x, y) = e −y 2 cos(x + y) about the point (0, 0).
