Answer:

41,666.67m2

Step-by-step explanation:

Call W the Width and L the Length with 3 pieces.

The total length will be 2W + 3L

The Area is L*W

so,

A = L*W

2W+3L = 1000

Solve for L

3L = 1000-2W

L = (1000-2W)/3

subtitute for L into the first equation

A = L*W

A = W*(1000-2W)/3

A = (1000W - 2W^2)/3

Now, to find the max, set the 1st derivative = 0. I don't know if you know what that means, but...

dA/dW = 1000/3 - 4W/3 = 0

1000 - 4W = 0

W = 250 meters

Solve for L

2W+3L = 1000

500 + 3L = 1000

3L = 500

L = 166.67 m

Area = 250*500/3 = 41,666.67m2.

BRANILIEST ANSWER GETS ALOT OF POINTS I NEED HELP PLZZ
yulyashka [42]
For this problem, I'd use cross-multiplication.

9/12 = x/8.

When cross multiplying, multiply 12*x and 9*8. This leads to a new equation:

12x = 72.

Then you solve as an algebra problem.

*Divide 12 on both sides*

x = 6.
