Question

Find the minimum of the below function in the presence of bound constraints:

F = 1 + x1 / (1+x2) - 3x, x2 +x2(1+x2) where 0(Use fmincon in MATLAB)

Answer 1

The question contains typos, making it unclear, so a precise solution cannot be given. For optimization with fmincon in MATLAB, one would define the objective function and constraints and execute the solver within given bounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question appears to have a typo, but it looks like they're asking about finding the minimum of a function with bound constraints using fmincon in MATLAB. However, the provided least-squares regression line equation ‹-173.51 + 4.83x, does not seem to be directly related to the function in question. Unfortunately, the function itself is not clear due to the presence of typos, so I cannot provide an accurate solution. To solve such a problem generally, one would define the objective function and constraints in MATLAB and use fmincon to find the local minimum within the given bounds, assuming that's what '0' refers to as a lower bound.
