Question
The surface of a hill above the ry-plane is described implicitly by 3x² + y² + (z + 1)² = 2, z>0. Suppose that, starting at the base of the hill (where z = 0), you want to start climbing along the steepest possible incline. At what point(s) and in what direction(s) should you start your climb? (Hint: Find out how to formulate this as a Lagrange multiplier problem.)
