x + y = 20 The product is (x)(20 - x) = p(x) You can now get the maximum either through the vertex form for a parabola opening downward or you can get it by differential calculus.
Can you perform either method?
Yup, I got it now. I was just unsure of how to set it up! Thanks :D
you're quite welcome!
