What is the minimum value of? On positive reals if $3x+4y+7z=1$ what is the minimum value of $\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{z}?$ I have tried using the arithmetic mean and harmonic mean inequality but I failed. Not good at inequalities though. Please help.

From $3x+4y+7z=1$ I got $z= \frac{1}{7} (-3 x-4 y+1)$ and plugged in
$$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{z}$$
gives $$f(x,y)=\frac{7}{1-3 x-4 y}+\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}$$
$$f'_x=\frac{21}{(1-3 x-4 y)^2}-\frac{1}{x^2};\;f'_y=\frac{28}{(1-3 x-4 y)^2}-\frac{1}{y^2}$$
$f'_x=0$ gives $21x^2=(1-3x-4y)^2$ and $f_y=0\to 28y^2=(1-3x-4y)^2$
so we have $21x^2=28y^2$ which for positive reals means $y=\frac{\sqrt 3}{2}\,x$
furthermore we have from the first equation
$x\sqrt{21}=1-3x-4y$ which after substituting becomes 
$x\sqrt{21}=1-3x-2\sqrt{ 3}x$
$$x=\frac{1}{3+2 \sqrt{3}+\sqrt{21}};\;y=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2 \left(3+2 \sqrt{3}+\sqrt{21}\right)};\;z=\frac{1}{7+2 \sqrt{7}+\sqrt{21}}$$
So minimum of $\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}+\frac{1}{z}$ is
$2 \left(7+2 \sqrt{3}+2 \sqrt{7}+\sqrt{21}\right)\approx 40.676$
