Problem 4.3-10 Problem 4.3-12
... If we want P (a < X < b) = 0.90 and we know that 0.05 of the total area lies to the left of a, then we only need find a b that corresponds to P (X > b) = 0.05 which corresponds to P (X < b) = 0.95. From Table IV, P (X < b) = 0.95 corresponds to b = 21.03. ...

... (c) (1 point) If f has a saddle point at (a, b) then f cannot have a local minimum at (a, b). Solution: T (The definition of “saddle point” precludes it from being a local maximum or minimum) (d) (1 point) If f is differentiable at (a, b, c) then magnitude of the gradient vector ∇f (a, b, c) is the ...

Mathematical optimization
In mathematics, computer science and operations research, mathematical optimization (alternatively, optimization or mathematical programming) is the selection of a best element (with regard to some criteria) from some set of available alternatives.In the simplest case, an optimization problem consists of maximizing or minimizing a real function by systematically choosing input values from within an allowed set and computing the value of the function. The generalization of optimization theory and techniques to other formulations comprises a large area of applied mathematics. More generally, optimization includes finding ""best available"" values of some objective function given a defined domain (or a set of constraints), including a variety of different types of objective functions and different types of domains.
