Answer:

21 ft by 28 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To maximize the area, see the attached.

Perimeter will be 4l+3w which is equal to the fencing perimeter, given as 168

4l+3w=168

Making l the subject then

4l=168-3w

l=42-¾w

Area of individual land will be lw and substituting l with l=42-¾w

Then

A=lw=(42-¾w)w=42w-¾w²

A=42w-¾w²

Getting the first derivative of the above with respect to w rhen

42-w6/4=0

w6/4=42

w=42*4/6=28

Since

l=42-¾w=42-¾(28)=21

Therefore, maximum dimensions are 21 for l and 28 for w

3 ( 8m+5) = 4 (6m+7)-13
Kitty [74]

Answer:

infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3(8m + 5) = 4(6m + 7) - 13 ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

24m + 15 = 24m + 28 - 13 , that is

24m + 15 = 24m + 15

Since both sides are equal then any real value of x makes the equation true.

Thus there are an infinite number of solutions
