1.

Divide 20 into two parts such that the sum of the parts of the squares is 208.

Answer»

ANSWER:

x+y=20 and z=xy3

⇒z=y3(20-y)=20y3-y4

dz

dy

=60y2-4y3=0⇒4y2(15-y)=0

So, either y=0,ory=15

Now

d2z

dy2

=120y-12y2,bacauseAty=0,

d2z

dy2

>0

bacausey=0 is the POINT of minima and at y=15,

d2z

dy2

<0

∵y=15 is the point of maximum.

Hence the REQUIRED parts is (5,15)
