OpenStudy (anonymous):

lagrange?? you lost me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

home...home on lagrange

OpenStudy (amistre64):

to min/max a function given a constraint by another; we can use a lagrange multiplier to work it out; but this isnt a min max problem; just a system of equations

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooh truth is i have no idea how to do this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it was easy enough since the answer was whole numbers
