The greatest area that can be enclosed by a given amount of material will always be a square...

M=2L+2W  so we can say:

2L=M-2W

L=(M-2W)/2

area is:

A=LW  and using L from above:

A=W(M-2W)/2

A=(MW-2W^2)/2

dA/dW=(M-4W)/2 

d2A/dW2=-4

Since acceleration, d2A/dW2, is a negative constant, when velocity, dA/dW=0, it is at an absolute maximum for A(W).

dA/dW=0 only when M-4W=0, 4W=M, W=M/4

from earlier we found L=(M-2W)/2 and using W from above we get:

L=(M-M/2)/2

L=(2M-M)/4

L=M/4

So L=W=M/4, thus it is a square.

That's the proof, anyway...

188=2x+2y

94=x+y

y=94-x

A=xy and using y from above:

A=94x-x^2

dA/dx=94-2x, d2A/dx2=-2, as explained earlier, since acceleration is a negative constant, when dA/dx=0, it is at an absolute maximum for A(x).

dA/dx=0 only when 94-2x=0, 2x=94, x=47

and from earlier, y=94-x, so y=94-47

y=47

So the dimensions that produce the greatest area are:

47ft by 47ft

And thus the greatest area is:

47^2=2209 ft^2

You unfold chicken wire to make a circular pen. The area of the pen is 78.5 square meters. How many meters of chicken wire do yo
Lelu [443]
Circular pen means you are going to use Area = Pi(r^2). 

So 78.5 = pi(r^2). Divide by pi on both sides to get r^2 = 78.5/pi. Take the square root of that to get r or radius = approximately 4.99. If you need an exact answer then use \sqrt{ \frac{78.5}{ \pi } } for the next part because you are not done yet.

Plug whatever R you use into the circumference formula of Circumference = 2(pi)(r).

If you use 4.99, you do 2(pi)(4.99) which is approximately 31.35. If you use the exact answer, you do 2(pi)(\sqrt{ \frac{78.5}{ \pi} }) which gives you approximately 31.41. 

Either way you'll need about 31 meters of chicken wire but the 31.40796 or ~31.41 is closer to the exact answer.
