Answer

a) 24 b) See below for explanation.

Work Step by Step

$$ g(x,y,z)=x^{3}y^{2}z\sqrt {10-x-y-z} $$ (a) $$ \begin{split} g(1,2,3) &=(1)^{3} .(2)^{2}. (3)\sqrt {10-(1)-(2)-(3)} \\ &=12\sqrt {4}\\ &=24 \end{split} $$ (b) The expression for $f$ makes sense if the quantity under the square root sign is non-negative. So the domain of $f$ is $$ \begin{split} D &=\left\{ (x,y,z ) : 10-x-y-z \geq 0 \right\} \\ & =\left\{ (x,y,z ) : z \leq 10-x-y \right\} \end{split} $$ The inequality $z \leq 10-x-y $, describes the points on or below the plane $ z +x+y= 10 $.
