Answer:

p = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n = 2 + 6m ← substitute m = - $\frac{1}{2}$ into the expression

n = 2 + 6(- $\frac{1}{2}$ ) = 2 - 3 = - 1

Thus

p = $\frac{2}{n}$ = $\frac{2}{-1}$ = - 2

Find two positive real numbers whose product is a maximum. the sum is 80

Eduardwww [97]

Let's say the numbers are "a" and "b"

thus $\bf y=ab\qquad 
\begin{cases}
a+b=80\\
b=80-a
\end{cases}\implies y=a(80-a)\implies y=80a-a^2\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{da}=80-2a$

set the derivative to 0, and check the critical points, there's only one anyway

and do a first-derivative test, to see if it's a maximum
