Answer:

  54880/27 = 2032 16/27

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the maximum value of 5x²y, subject to the constraints {x+y=14, x≥0, y≥0}.

Solution

Using the constraint to write an equation for y in terms of x, we have ...

  5x²(14 -x) = -5x³ +70x²

The value will be maximized at a point where the derivative is zero:

  -15x² +140x = 0 . . . . . derivative

  -5x(3x -28) = 0 . . . . . factored

  x = 0  or  28/3 . . . . . the left solution is a minimum

The value of 5x²y is maximized at x = 28/3. That maximum value is ...

  5(28/3)²(42-28)/3 = 54880/27

The maximum value of 5x²y is 54880/27.
