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.

If I have 85 dollars and I have to split it between 7 people, what is the most I can spend on each person?
pashok25 [27]

Each person will get 12 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total amount = 85 dollars

Total people = 7

As it has to be divided among 7 people, the total amount will be divided by 7

So,

Each person will get:

=\frac{85}{7}\\= 12.14

Rounding off to nearest whole number

12 dollars each with 1 dollar remaining

Hence,

Each person will get 12 dollars
