Only column 3 - Trina's numbers represents proportional relationship
<u>Equation for it is: </u>
- y = 2.5x
Calculation is provided on the table
Let the two positive real numbers be x and y.
The sum of two numbers is 156, so we can write:
x+ y = 156
or
y = 156 - x
The product of two numbers = xy
Using the value of y in previous equation we can write:
Product = x(156 - x) = - x² + 156x
The above equation is a quadratic equation and results in a parabola. The maximum value of parabola with negative coefficient of x² lies at its vertex.
The x component of vertex will be =
Here b is the coefficient of x term, and a is the coefficient of x² term.
So,
a = -1
b = 156
Using the values in the formula we get the x component of vertex x =
So x = 78
and
y = 156 - x = 156 - 78 = 78
Thus, the two numbers whose sum is 156 and which result in maximum product are 78, 78
