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.

Answer:
A and B are correct
Step-by-step explanation:
if x:y is 1:3 then x is 1 and y is 3
1/3 of 3 is 1 so A is correct
3/4(1+3) is 3 so B is correct
But
1/4 × 3 is not 1 so C is not correct
3/4 ×1 is not 3 so D isn't correct
The second angle would be 140⁰. When two angles are supplementary, they add up to 180⁰.
180⁰-40⁰=140⁰
We know that a triangle has three sides, all the same length (its equilateral, after all)
The equation to find the length of each side is
Perimeter divided by 3
or in this case
48.6 divided by 3=16.2cm (don't forget the unit)
Hope that helps :)
