Step-by-step explanation:
Since the cost for border paper is given in terms of feet and the dimensions of the gym are given in meters, we want to convert them to the same unit. Let's choose to convert feet to meters since that would be only one conversion:
Therefore, the cost of border paper is $6.99 pet 15 feet or $6.99 pet 4.572 meters.
Since the gym is rectangular, the gym's perimeter is equal to:
Therefore, the cost of the total border paper for the gym is equal to:
Answer:
The largest total area that can be enclosed will be a square of length 272 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we get the perimeter of the large rectangular enclosure.
Perimeter of a rectangle =2(l + w)
Perimeter of the large rectangular enclosure= 1088 yard
Therefore:
2(L+W)=1088
The region inside the fence is the area
Area: A = LW
We need to solve the perimeter formula for either the length or width.
2L+ 2W= 1088 yd
2W= 1088– 2L
W =
W = 544–L
Now substitute W = 544–L into the area formula
A = LW
A = L(544 – L)
A = 544L–L²
Since A is a quadratic expression, we re-write the expression with the exponents in descending order.
A = –L²+544L
Next, we look for the value of the x coordinate
L=272 yards
Plugging L=272 yards into the calculation for area:
A = –L²+544L
A(272)=-272²+544(272)
=73984 square yards
Thus the largest area that could be encompassed would be a square where each side has a length of 272 yards and a width of:
W = 544 – L
= 544 – 272
= 272 yards
