The dimensions of each pen that will maximize the total enclosed area would be as; Length 81 feet; Width 81 feet.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

Let the Dimension of each pen

Length = x

Width = y

Area = xy

Perimeter equation

2(x + y) = 324

 x + y = 162

Substituting the perimeter equation

Area = x(162 - x)

Area = -x^2 + 162x

If the zeros of the quadratic are 0 and 162, then the median will be at where the maximum area occurs.

162/ 2

= 81

Hence, The dimensions of each pen that will maximize the total enclosed area would be as; Length 81 feet; Width 81 feet.

rusak2 [61]
180 is the area and the length is 1.25 so we need to find the width. We need to divide 180/1.25 which is 144.
144*1.25 is 180
The width is
