The maximum value of \( f(x, y, z) = 10x + 6y - 8z \) subject to the constraints \[ 5x - 2y + 6z \leq 20, \quad 10x + 4y - 6z \leq 30, \quad x, y, z \geq 0, \] is equal to …………. (round off to TWO decimal places).
Step 1: Linear programming formulation. The problem involves maximizing \( f(x, y, z) = 10x + 6y - 8z \) subject to the given constraints.
Step 2: Solving using the simplex method. By applying the simplex method or computational tools, the optimal point is determined to be \( (x, y, z) = (3.33, 5, 0) \).
Step 3: Calculating \( f(x, y, z) \). Substituting into \( f(x, y, z) \), the maximum value is \( 56.66 \).
Step 4: Conclusion. The maximum value is \( {56.66} \).

Let $D = \{(x, y) \in \mathbb{R}^2 : x > 0 \text{ and } y > 0\}$. If the following second-order linear partial differential equation
$y^2 \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x^2} - x^2 \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial y^2} + y \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} = 0$ on $D$
is transformed to
$\left( \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial \eta^2} - \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial \xi^2} \right) + \left( \frac{\partial u}{\partial \eta} + \frac{\partial u}{\partial \xi} \right) \frac{1}{2\eta} + \left( \frac{\partial u}{\partial \eta} - \frac{\partial u}{\partial \xi} \right) \frac{1}{2\xi} = 0$ on $D$,
