80% of the species are insects.

4/5 x 100, comes out to 80.

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)

Solve by using square roots. ​ 6x^2−27=39
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Simplifying

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

6x + -27 = 39

Reorder the terms:

-27 + 6x = 39

Solving

-27 + 6x = 39

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '27' to each side of the equation.

-27 + 27 + 6x = 39 + 27

Combine like terms: -27 + 27 = 0

0 + 6x = 39 + 27

6x = 39 + 27

Combine like terms: 39 + 27 = 66

6x = 66

Divide each side by '6'.

x = 11

Simplifying

x = 11
