INSTRUCTION: ATTEMPT ALL THE QUESTIONS INDIVIDUALLY.

Question One (30 Marks)


√
(a) i) Sketch the graph of the function f (x, y) = 16 − 4x2 − y 2 . What is the domain and
range of f ? [2 Marks]

ii) Does lim exist? If yes, give the limiting value. If no, explain why.

(b) The daily output Q of East African Breweries Limited is estimated by
Q(x, y) = 3x3 + 2x2 y + y 3 ,
where x is the number of units of skilled labour and y is the number of units of unskilled
labour used. The current labour force of the company consists of 40 hours of skilled labour
and 30 hours of unskilled labour. The management wants to increase the skilled labour
level used by one hour without affecting the daily output. What would you advice the
company to do in order to carry out this policy? [3 Marks]

point (1,1). [4 Marks]

(c) A space probe in the shape of the ellipsoid 4x2 +y 2 +4z 2 = 16 enters the earth’s atmosphere
and its surface begins to heat. After one hour, the temperature at point (x, y, z) on the
probe’s surface is T (x, y, z) = 8x2 + 4yz − 16z + 600. By means of the Lagrange multiplier,
