Answer:

35/40

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare, both denominator should be same.

\frac{15}{20}=\frac{15*2}{20*2}=\frac{30}{40}\\\\\\\frac{30}{40} \ < \ \frac{35}{40}\\\\\\\frac{15}{20} \ < \ \frac{35}{40}

\sf{\bold{\red{\underline{\underline{To\:Find}}}}}

⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • the greater number is

\sf{\bold{\purple{\underline{\underline{Solution}}}}}

we have to find the greater number between 15/20 and 35/40

To do this,

we have to compare the denominator same.

  • \sf{\dfrac{35}{40}=\dfrac{35×1}{40×1}=\dfrac{35}{40}   }

  • \sf{\dfrac{15}{20}=\dfrac{15×2}{20×2}=\dfrac{30}{40}   }

<u>According</u><u> </u><u>to</u><u> </u><u>the question</u><u>, </u>

we have to find the greatest one

  • \sf{\dfrac{35}{40} > \dfrac{30}{40}  }

  • \sf{\dfrac{35}{40}>\dfrac{15}{20}   }

\sf{\bold{\green{\underline{\underline{Answer}}}}}

How to do this and find the max or min points

I see your last line is : c(x) = 0.9(x^2-10)^2 + 101.1

Let y = x^2, then c(y) = 0.9(y-10)^2 + 101.1

Apparently, c(y) is a parabola, min is 101.1 when y = 10, max is infinity

So let x^2 = 10 -> x = sqrt(10) or -sqrt(10), min is 101.1, max is infinity
