The larger rectangle will be a square with sides of 96 ft while the pens will have 96 ft of length and 31 ft of width

<h3>How to Maximize Area of rectangle?</h3>

The side lengths of the big rectangle are x and y and so we have the following expression for its area A:

A = x*y

This is tied to the constraint that the perimeter should not be larger than the available fencing , Thus;

2x + 2y = 384   (All the fencing is used to maximize the area)

y = (384 - 2x)/2

y = 192 - x

Put 192 - x for y in A to get;

A = x(192 - x)

A = 192x - x²

Completing the square gives;

A = 9216 - (x - 96)²

Thus;

A is maximum at;

x - 96 = 0

x = 96 ft

y = 192 - 96

y = 96 ft

Then since we maximised the area of the bigger rectangle , we have maximised the area of the smaller pens. The dimensions will be;

x_small = 96 ft /3

x_small = 31 ft

y_small = 96 ft

Complete question is;

Building sheep pens: It's time to drench the sheep again, so Chance and Chelsea-Lou are fencing off a large rectangular area to build some temporary holding pens. To prep the males, females, and lambs, they are separated into three smaller and equal-size pens partitioned within the large rectangle. If 384 ft of fencing is available and the maximum area is desired, what will be (a) the dimensions of the larger, outer rectangle? (b) the dimensions of the smaller holding pens?

Answer:

“Birth of a Nation”—D. W. Griffith’s disgustingly racist yet titanically original 1915 feature—back to the fore. The movie, set mainly in a South Carolina town before and after the Civil War, depicts slavery in a halcyon light, presents blacks as good for little but subservient labor, and shows them, during Reconstruction, to have been goaded by the Radical Republicans into asserting an abusive dominion over Southern whites. It depicts freedmen as interested, above all, in intermarriage, indulging in legally sanctioned excess and vengeful violence mainly to coerce white women into sexual relations. It shows Southern whites forming the Ku Klux Klan to defend themselves against such abominations and to spur the “Aryan” cause overall. The movie asserts that the white-sheet-clad death squad served justice summarily and that, by denying blacks the right to vote and keeping them generally apart and subordinate, it restored order and civilization to the South.

“Birth of a Nation,” which runs more than three hours, was sold as a sensation and became one; it was shown at gala screenings, with expensive tickets. It was also the subject of protest by civil-rights organizations and critiques by clergymen and editorialists, and for good reason: “Birth of a Nation” proved horrifically effective at sparking violence against blacks in many cities. Given these circumstances, it’s hard to understand why Griffith’s film merits anything but a place in the dustbin of history, as an abomination worthy solely of autopsy in the study of social and aesthetic pathology.
