The width would be 236 and the lengths would be 118

Use the equations 2L+W=472 and W*L=MAX
Change the first equation to W=472-2L and plug this into the other equation
(472-2L)(L)=MAX
472L-2L^2=M (take derivative)
472-4L=0 (set to 0 to find the max value)
4L=472 
L=118 
Plug into original to get W=236

Hope this helps!

What are the explicit equation and domain for a geometric sequence with a first term of 4 and a second term of −12?
Lerok [7]
a_1=4;\ a_2=-12\\\\r=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}\to r=\dfrac{-12}{4}=-3

The formula of a geometric sequence:

a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}

substitute

a_n=4\cdot(-3)^{n-1}

The\ domain:\ \text{all integers where}\ n\geq1

Answer: \boxed{a_n=4(-3)^{n-1};\ \text{all integers where}\ n\geq1}
