4. a. 2 It is required to optimize the following function, f(x1, X2, X3) = x1x2x3? Constrained by the following relationship x1 - x2 + x3 = 20 i. Determine all the critical values which will ensure f (x1, X2, X3) is optimized [5] ii. What is the optimal value of f(x1, X2, X3)? [2] iii. Determine whether your value in (I) is a maximum, minimum or saddle point [6] iv. How would the optimal value you calculated in (ii) change if the constraint changes from 20 to 10? [4]
