Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation: The first X was 1. If you add 1 too the 1/2 in the equation, its 1 & 1/2. theres only one graph that has 1 & 1/2, and its B
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the length and y be the width of the rectangular plot.
The plot is bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a single-strand electric fence. It means,
x+2y = 1500
x = 1500 - 2y ....(1)
We know that the area of a rectangular plot is given by :
A = xy ....(2)
Put the value of x from equation (1) in (2)
.....(3)
For largest area, differentiate above area equation wrt y.

Put the value of y in equation (1).
x = 1500-2(375)
= 750 m
Put the value of y in equation (3).

Hence, the largest area is 281250 m² and its dimensions are 750 m and 375 m.
Check picture below, solve for "x" and "y"
unless you've already covered the 30-60-90 triangle, then check your book on them, to see the ratios, using the 30-60-90 ratios is simpler
