if  a;b;c>0  and  a+b+c=1  find min((1/a) + (9/b) + ((25)/c)) = ?  a)73   b)75   c)105   d)81   e)83

$$\mathrm{if}\:\:\mathrm{a};\mathrm{b};\mathrm{c}>\mathrm{0}\:\:\mathrm{and}\:\:\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}=\mathrm{1} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{find}\:\boldsymbol{\mathrm{min}}\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{a}}\:+\:\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{b}}\:+\:\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\mathrm{c}}\right)\:=\:? \\ $$ $$\left.\mathrm{a}\left.\right)\left.\mathrm{7}\left.\mathrm{3}\left.\:\:\:\mathrm{b}\right)\mathrm{75}\:\:\:\mathrm{c}\right)\mathrm{105}\:\:\:\mathrm{d}\right)\mathrm{81}\:\:\:\mathrm{e}\right)\mathrm{83} \\ $$

s=(1/a)+(9/b)+((25)/(1−a−b))  (∂s/∂a)=−(1/a^2 )+((25)/((1−a−b)^2 ))=0  (1/a)=(5/(1−a−b))  (∂s/∂b)=−(9/b^2 )+((25)/((1−a−b)^2 ))=0  (3/b)=(5/(1−a−b))=(1/a)  ⇒b=3a  ⇒a=(1/9)  ⇒b=(1/3)  ⇒c=(5/9)  s_(min) =9+9×3+25×(9/5)=81

$${s}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}}+\frac{\mathrm{9}}{{b}}+\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\mathrm{1}−{a}−{b}} \\ $$ $$\frac{\partial{s}}{\partial{a}}=−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}^{\mathrm{2}} }+\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\left(\mathrm{1}−{a}−{b}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }=\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}}=\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{1}−{a}−{b}} \\ $$ $$\frac{\partial{s}}{\partial{b}}=−\frac{\mathrm{9}}{{b}^{\mathrm{2}} }+\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\left(\mathrm{1}−{a}−{b}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }=\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $$\frac{\mathrm{3}}{{b}}=\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{1}−{a}−{b}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow{b}=\mathrm{3}{a} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow{a}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{9}} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow{b}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow{c}=\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{9}} \\ $$ $${s}_{{min}} =\mathrm{9}+\mathrm{9}×\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{25}×\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{5}}=\mathrm{81} \\ $$

By Cauthy Schwarz inequality in engel form:  (1/a)+(9/b)+((25)/c)≥(((1+3+5)^2 )/(a+b+c))=81

$$\mathrm{By}\:\mathrm{Cauthy}\:\mathrm{Schwarz}\:\mathrm{inequality}\:\mathrm{in}\:\mathrm{engel}\:\mathrm{form}: \\ $$ $$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{a}}+\frac{\mathrm{9}}{\mathrm{b}}+\frac{\mathrm{25}}{\mathrm{c}}\geqslant\frac{\left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{5}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{c}}=\mathrm{81} \\ $$
