7 a) What do you understand by the term ‘penalty’ in a constrained multivariable
optimization problem? [3]
b) Consider the problem: Minimize f(x) = x12+x22−6x1−8x2+ 15
Subject to 4x12+x22≥ 16
3x1+5x2≤ 15
Normalize the constraints and find a suitable value of r1 for use in the interior
penalty function method at the starting point (x1, x2) = (0, 0). [12]
