Answer:
split the number into equal pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming "splitting any number" means identifying parts that have the number as their sum, the maximum product of the parts will be found where the parts all have equal values.
We have to assume that the number being split is positive and all of the parts are positive.
<h3>2 parts</h3>
If we divide number n into parts x and (n -x), their product is the quadratic function x(n -x). The graph of this function opens downward and has zeros at x=0 and x=n. The vertex (maximum product) is halfway between the zeros, at x = (0 + n)/2 = n/2.
<h3>3 parts</h3>
Similarly, we can look at how to divide a (positive) number into 3 parts that have the largest product. Let's assume that one part is x. Then the other two parts will have a maximum product when they are equal. Their values will be (n-x)/2, and their product will be ((n -x)/2)^2. Then the product of the three numbers is ...
p = x(x^2 -2nx +n^2)/4 = (x^3 -2nx^2 +xn^2)/4
This will be maximized where its derivative is zero:
p' = (1/4)(3x^2 -4nx +n^2) = 0
(3x -n)(x -n) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor
x = n/3 or n
We know that x=n will give a minimum product (0), so the maximum product is obtained when x = n/3.
<h3>more parts</h3>
A similar development can prove by induction that the parts must all be equal.

Answer:
The numbers associated with the triangle are 5.437 and 6.437 centimeters, respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are consecutives, when their difference is equal to 1. The area of the triangle is determined by the following formula:
Where 
is the shortest length of the triangle, measured in centimeters.
And we get the following second-order polynomial:
(1)
If we know that 
, then the shortest length of the triangle is:
and 
Since length is a positive variable, the only possible solution is:
Then, the numbers associated with the triangle are 5.437 and 6.437 centimeters, respectively.
Answer:
C = 37.6991
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the circumference of a circle is given: C = π · d
where, d is the diameter of the circle.
Plug in the value of d = 12 and use the π button on the calculator.
C = π · 12
C = 37.6991
