14,000 because 494 would round down since it is not above 500.
We know the length and width. We're just trying to find all of the area in between. To find area, we do length*width. Length is 11.5 and the width is 10.75. 11.5*10.75=123.625 ft^2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let length be x and breadth be y .
Along the river no fencing is required so total boundary line of the rectangular land = x + y + y = x + 2y
add divider to it so total length
= x + 2y + y = x + 3y
x + 3y = 2400
area A = xy
y ( 2400 - 3y ) = A
2400y - 3y² = A
For maximum area dA / dy = 0
2400 - 6y = 0
y = 400 yards.
x = 1200 yards
largest area = xy
= 48000 sq yards.
