2x+3y=60 solve for x...
x=(60-3y)/2
p=xy^3, using x from above:
p=y^3(60-3y)/2
p=(60y^3-3y^4)/2
dp/dy=(180y^2-12y^3)/2
dp/dy=90y^2-6y^2
dp/dy=0 when:
90y^2-6y^3=0
6y^2(15-y)=0, we know y>0 so
y=15, since x=(60-3y)/2
x=7.5
(We solved it this way because otherwise you get quartic equations and cubic derivatives, yuck :P)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is written in the standard form of a quadratic function:

where:
- ax² → quadratic term
- bx → linear term
- c → constant
You need to convert this to vertex form:

where:
To find the vertex form, you need to find the vertex. For this, use the equation for axis of symmetry, since this line passes through the vertex:

Using your original equation, identify the a, b, and c terms:

Insert the known values into the equation:

Simplify. Two negatives make a positive:

X is equal to 3 (3,y). Insert the value of x into the standard form equation and solve for y:

Simplify using PEMDAS:

The value of y is -6 (3,-6). Insert these values into the vertex form:

Insert the value of a and simplify:
