Area=length*width
let the sides perpendicular to the river be x
then  the side parallel to the river is 4,700-2x 
A(x)=x(4700-2x)
A(x)=4700x-2x^2

This a quadratic function with a=-2 and b=4700
thus
Maximum area occurs where x=-b/2a=-4700(-2*2)=1,175 ft
length=4700-2(1175)=2,350 ft

I need to know how to solve this
ahrayia [7]
Answer:

To find angle y you subtract the two angles form 180 degrees because it is a straight line. Then you subtract angle y and 72 from 180 because a triangle adds up to 180 degrees and you get angle x.

Hope this helps, ask if you have any more questions!
