<s>[INST] Find the minimum value of the function in 2 variables. Find the minimum of the function of two variable defined as
$$f(x_1,x_2)=(x_1-x_2)^2 +\left(2\sqrt2x_1-\sqrt{6(x_2)-(x_2)^2-7}\right)^2.$$ 
At first I tried to figure out a integral in this but failed. Then I tried using graphs, but things became complex. Any hints how to start the problem? Can I use partial differentiation?
 [/INST] From $f'_{x_1}=0,\;f'_{x_2}=0$
we get
$
\left\{
\begin{array}{l}
 2 x_1-2 x_2-\dfrac{2 \sqrt{2} \sqrt{-x_2^2+6 x_2-7}}{\sqrt{x_1}}+8=0 \\
 -2 x_1+\dfrac{4 \sqrt{2 x_1} (x_2-3)}{\sqrt{-x_2^2+6 x_2-7}}+6=0 \\
\end{array}
\right.
$
Which holds for $x_1=-1;\;x_2=1$
and $f(-1,1)=2$ is the minimum because  second derivative $f''_{xx}=-\frac{\sqrt{2} (6-2 x_2)}{\sqrt{x_1} \sqrt{-x_2^2+6 x_2-7}}-2$ and Hessian 
$H(x_1,x_2)=-\frac{4 \left(4 \sqrt{2} x_1^{3/2}-x_1 \left(-x_2^2+6 x_2-7\right)^{3/2}-2 \sqrt{2} \sqrt{x_1} \left(x_2^3-9 x_2^2+25 x_2-21\right)+2 \left(-x_2^2+6 x_2-7\right)^{3/2}\right)}{x_1 \left(-x_2^2+6 x_2-7\right)^{3/2}}$
are positive at $(-1,1)$ so for the second derivative test  $(-1,1)$ is a minimum.
Hope this helps
