Question

The sum of two numbers is 20. If the product of the square of one number and cube of the other is maximum, then the numbers are

  1. 12, 8  
  2. 3, 4  
  3. 9, 12  
  4. 15, 18  

The correct answer is: 12, 8


    Let the numbers be x comma blank y. comma
    therefore blank x plus y equals 20 blank rightwards double arrow blank y equals 20 minus x

    Let S equals x to the power of 3 end exponent open parentheses 20 minus x close parentheses to the power of 2 end exponent

    rightwards double arrow blank fraction numerator d S over denominator d x end fraction equals 2 x to the power of 3 end exponent open parentheses 20 minus x close parentheses open parentheses negative 1 close parentheses plus 3 x to the power of 2 end exponent open parentheses 20 minus x close parentheses to the power of 2 end exponent

    For maximum or minimum, put fraction numerator d S over denominator d x end fraction equals 0

    rightwards double arrow blank x to the power of 2 end exponent open parentheses 20 minus x close parentheses open parentheses negative 2 x plus 60 minus 3 x close parentheses equals 0

    rightwards double arrow blank x equals 0 comma blank x equals 12 blank or x equals 20

    x cannot be 0 or 20

    Now fraction numerator d S over denominator d x end fraction equals x to the power of 2 end exponent open parentheses 20 minus x close parentheses to the power of 2 end exponent left square bracket 60 minus 5 x right square bracket

    For 0 less than x less than 12 comma fraction numerator d S over denominator d x end fraction greater than 0 and 12 less than x less than 20 comma blank fraction numerator d S over denominator d x end fraction less than 0

    therefore blank S is maximum at x equals 12

    For x equals 12, then y equals 20 minus 12 equals 8

    The required numbers are 12, 8
