This is simply    15   1/4    ÷   2/3

For there to be maximum lots, it should be divided by 2/3.

It should not be greater than 2/3 

<span>This is simply    15   1/4    ÷   2/3
</span>
(15*4 +1)/4   ÷  2/3

61/4  ×  3/2 = 183/8 = 22.875

Maximum number of lots created = 22

Well, if you want the maximum number of splits, then you want to make
each individual split as small as possible. 
That's 2/3 acre.  How many will that give you ?

                  (15 and 1/4) divided by (2/3)

             =      (15.25)  /  (0.666...)  =  22.875 pieces .

The maximum number of 2/3-acre lots you can sell is 22 lots.

Then you have 58.3% of an acre of land left over that you can't sell
because it's less than 2/3 acre.  Sadly, that 58.3% of an acre is just
about the size of the lot that I've been living n for almost 30 years. 
You really know how to rub it in, dontcha !

Find an expression for a cubic function f if f(4) = 96 and f(-4) = f(0) = f(5) = 0. Part 1 of 4 A cubic function generally has t
Bezzdna [24]

Given a polynomial p(x) and a point x_0, we have that

p(x_0) = 0 \iff (x-x_0) \text{\ divides\ } p(x)

We know that our cubic function is zero at -4, 0 and 5, which means that our polynomial is a multiple of

(x+4)(x)(x-5) = x(x+4)(x-5)

Since this is already a cubic polynomial (it's the product of 3 polynomials with degree one), we can only adjust a multiplicative factor: our function must be

f(x) = ax(x+4)(x-5),\quad a \in \mathbb{R}

To fix the correct value for a, we impose f(4)=96:

f(4) = 4a(4+4)(4-5) = -32a = 96

And so we must impose

-32a=96 \iff a = -\dfrac{96}{32} = -3

So, the function we're looking for is

f(x) = -3x(x+4)(x-5)=-3x^3+3x^2+60x

(-)/(-)=(-)
(+)/(-)=(-)
(-)/(+)=(-)
