Let a,b,cε R such that a+2b+c=4.  Find maximum value of (ab+bc+ca).

$$\mathrm{Let}\:\mathrm{a},\mathrm{b},\mathrm{c}\epsilon\:\mathrm{R}\:\mathrm{such}\:\mathrm{that}\:\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{2b}+\mathrm{c}=\mathrm{4}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{Find}\:\mathrm{maximum}\:\mathrm{value}\:\mathrm{of}\:\left(\mathrm{ab}+\mathrm{bc}+\mathrm{ca}\right). \\ $$

b=((4−a−c)/2)=2−((a+c)/2)  F(a,c)=ab+bc+ca=(a+c)b+ac=2(a+c)−(((a+c)^2 )/2)+ac  (∂F/∂a)=2−(a+c)+c=2−a=0⇒a=2  (∂F/∂c)=2−(a+c)+a=2−c=0⇒c=2  max. F=F(2,2)=2×4−((16)/2)+2×2=4

$${b}=\frac{\mathrm{4}−{a}−{c}}{\mathrm{2}}=\mathrm{2}−\frac{{a}+{c}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${F}\left({a},{c}\right)={ab}+{bc}+{ca}=\left({a}+{c}\right){b}+{ac}=\mathrm{2}\left({a}+{c}\right)−\frac{\left({a}+{c}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}}+{ac} \\ $$$$\frac{\partial{F}}{\partial{a}}=\mathrm{2}−\left({a}+{c}\right)+{c}=\mathrm{2}−{a}=\mathrm{0}\Rightarrow{a}=\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\frac{\partial{F}}{\partial{c}}=\mathrm{2}−\left({a}+{c}\right)+{a}=\mathrm{2}−{c}=\mathrm{0}\Rightarrow{c}=\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${max}.\:{F}={F}\left(\mathrm{2},\mathrm{2}\right)=\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{4}−\frac{\mathrm{16}}{\mathrm{2}}+\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{4} \\ $$
