I have a question that relates to solving two unknown variables.
Could someone help me out?
: The sum of two numbers is 10. Find the numbers if the sum of their squares is to be a minimum. :
I tried to solve it by writing an equation, then expressing one unkown in terms of the others, substituting, then using differentiation and equate it to '0',
but so far no good.
Thanks in advance. :D
