6. (14 pts) Minimize f(x, y, z) = : r 2 + y2 + z2 subject to 2x - y + 2z = 16.

7. (14 pts) Show that the limit below does not exist:
x2 -y2
lim
(x,y)->(0,0) X - y2
Bonus ( 5 pts): Show that every plane that is tangent to the cone x2 + y2 = z2
passes through the origin.
5. (16 points) Find all critical points of f(x, y) =x3 + y2 - 6xy + 6x + 3y - 2
and identify each as alocal max, alocal min, or asaddle point.
4. (14 points) The temperature (in degrees Celsius) at apoint ( x, y, z) is
given by T(x, y, z) = cos(y)ex+z. (Assume distance in 3-space is measured in
meters.)
(a) A particle at the origin moves in the direction of the point (1, 2, 2). Does
the temperature increase or decrease in this direction? At what rate?
(b) Find aunit vector in the direction the particle should move in order for
it to see the most rapid increase in temperature (again assuming that the
particle starts moving fromthe origin.)
3. (14 pts) The radius of aright circular cylinder is increasing at the rate
of 3 cm/sec and the height is decreasing at the rate of 2 cm/sec. At what
rate is the volume changing at the instant when the height is 20 cmand the
radius is 5 cm?
2. (14 pts) Find an equation for the tangent plane to the surface z =4x2+y2
at the point (1, -1, 5)

1.(14 pts) Find parametric equations for the tangent line to the curve traced
out by the vector function
f(t) =et + 2 sin(t + ~ ) J + (t - 2)k
at the point (1, 2, -2).
