Answer:
13 1/3 and 6 2/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 2 parts be x and (20 - x).
So x^2(20 - x) must be a maximum.
y = x^2(20 - x)
y = 20x^2 - x^3
Finding the derivative):
y' = 40x - 3x^2 = 0 for maxm/minm value.
x( 40 - 3x) = 0
40 - 3x = 0
3x = 40
x = 40/3.
This is a maximum because the second derivative y" = 40 - 6x = 40 - 6(40/3)) is negative.
So the 2 numbers are 13 1/3 and 6 2/3.
Answer:
54/120 or 108/240
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle:
A (triangle )= 4 · 6 / 2 = 12 ft²
150 - 12 = 138 ft² ( the maximum area of the rectangle )
L = ?
W = 6 ft
A ( rectangle ) = L · W
L · 6 = 138
L = 138 : 6 = 23 ft.
Answer: the maximum length of the base of the rectangle he can build is 23 ft.
