Hi,
Let assume a the west side,
b the length of the north wall (i suppose the answer is smaller then the barn.
Cost of the fence= a*6+a*12+b*12=3000 $.
So 3a+2b=500==>b=(500-3a)/2
Area =a*b=a(500-3a)/2= 250a-3/2a²
Derivate the area ==> 250-3a=0
==> a=250/3 and b=(500-3*250/3)/2=125
Width=125 (feet)
Length=250/3=83.333 (feet)
Answer:
<h2>D) - 9/7</h2>
Hope this will help you lot.
Um sounds nice i guess its kind of funny simplify hairy fractions
