D) simultaneously.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Lagrangian method involves setting up a system of equations by taking partial derivatives of the Lagrangian function with respect to each variable, including any constraint equations. These equations typically need to be solved simultaneously to find the values of the variables that maximize or minimize the function subject to the constraints. Therefore, the best choice is to solve the equations simultaneously.
