The maximum "rectangle" would be a square.
So, a square 75 feet on each side would have a maximum area of 5,625 square feet.
ΔQTR and ΔSTP are similar triangles. The corresponding sides of similar triangles are the same length.
TR = PT
TS = QT
Input the algebraic expression to make an equation system
PT = TR
y = 2x - 1 <em>(first equation)</em>
TS = QT
6x + 13 = 5y
6x - 5y = -13 <span><em>(second equation)</em>
</span>Using subtitution method, subtitute y with 2x - 1 from first equation into the second equation, to find the value of x
6x - 5y = -13
6x - 5(2x - 1) = 13
6x - 10x + 5 = 13
-4x + 5 = 13
-4x = 13 - 5
-4x = 8
x = 8/-4
x = -2
Find y with subtituting x with -2 in the first equation
y = 2x - 1
y = 2(-2) - 1
y = -4 - 1
y = -5
Answer:
x = -2
y = -5
