[Solution Library] Honey A measure of the cohesiveness of honey can be modeled by C(G,M)=106.35-3.766-4.71M+0.04G^2+0.08M^2+0.06GM where G is the percentage


Question: Honey A measure of the cohesiveness of honey can be modeled by

\[C(G,M)=106.35-3.766-4.71M+0.04{{G}^{2}}+0.08{{M}^{2}}+0.06GM\]

where \(G\) is the percentage of glucose and maltose and \(M\) is the percentage of moisture. A contour graph of \(C\) is shown in Activity 3 .

  1. Find the absolute minimum cohesiveness of honey. Compare your answer with the estimate in the answer to part \(a\) of Activity 3 .
  2. If FDA restrictions for Grade A honey require that the combined percentages of glucose, maltose, and moisture not exceed \(40 \%\), what is the minimum measure of cohesiveness possible?
  3. Verify that the point in part \(b\) corresponds to a minimum.
