a) A = x4 + x2 + 2
Do : x4 ≥ 0 ∀x
x2 ≥ 0 ∀x
⇒ x4 + x2 + 2 ≥ 2
⇒ AMin = 2 ⇔ x = 0
b) B = 3x2 - 21x + 15
B = 3( x2 - \(2\dfrac{7}{2}x+\dfrac{49}{4}\) ) + 15 - \(\dfrac{147}{4}\)
B = 3( x - \(\dfrac{7}{2}\))2 - \(\dfrac{87}{4}\)
Do : 3( x - \(\dfrac{7}{2}\))2 ≥ 0 ∀x
⇒ 3( x - \(\dfrac{7}{2}\))2 - \(\dfrac{87}{4}\) ≥ - \(\dfrac{87}{4}\)
⇒ BMin = - \(\dfrac{87}{4}\) ⇔ x = \(\dfrac{7}{2}\)
c) C = x2 - 4xy + 5y2 + 10x - 22y + 28
C = x2 - 4xy + 4y2 + 10x - 20y + 25 + y2 - 2y + 1 + 2
C = ( x - 2y)2 + 10( x - 2y) + 25 + ( y - 1)2 + 2
C = ( x - 2y + 5)2 + ( y - 1)2 + 2
Do : ( x - 2y + 5)2 ≥ 0 ∀xy
( y - 1)2 ≥ 0 ∀y
⇒ ( x - 2y + 5)2 + ( y - 1)2 + 2 ≥ 2
⇒ CMin = 2 ⇔ x = - 3 ; y = 1
