The maximum possible area would have a length of 24 feet and width of 12 feet.
<h3>What is an
equation?</h3>
An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
An independent variable is a variable that does not depend on other variables while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variables.
Let x represent the length and y represent the width, hence:
Since beth has 48 ft fencing and cover 3 sides, hence:
x + 2y = 48
x = 48 - 2y (1)
Also:
Area (A) = xy
A = (48 - 2y)y
A = 48y - 2y²
The maximum area is at A' = 0, hence:
A' = 48 - 4y
48 - 4y = 0
y = 12 feet
x = 48 - 2(12) = 24
The maximum possible area would have a length of 24 feet and width of 12 feet.

6n−20=−2n+4(1−3n)
Simplify both sides of the equation.
−6n−20=−2n+4(1−3n)
−6n+−20=−2n+(4)(1)+(4)(−3n)(Distribute)
−6n+−20=−2n+4+−12n
−6n−20=(−2n+−12n)+(4)(Combine Like Terms)
−6n−20=−14n+4
−6n−20=−14n+4
Add 14n to both sides.
−6n−20+14n=−14n+4+14n
8n−20=4
Add 20 to both sides.
8n−20+20=4+20
8n=24
Divide both sides by 8.
8n/8 = 24/8
