Answer:

120 x 160

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length of the two ends is x foot per end, and the length of the parallel side is y foot, you can write the following equations:

16x + 12y = 3840

area = x * y

Simplify and rewrite the first and combine with second:

y = 320 - 4/3x

area = 320x - 4/3x²

Now you have a quadratic equation of which you want the maximum.

[calculation omitted]

The top is reached for x = 120 and y=160

The area will then be 19,200 ft²

Use &lt; , &gt; , = , ≤ , ≥ to complete these statements. 1) if x &lt; y , then y___ x, 2) if x &gt; 5 and 5 &gt; y, then x ___
vodomira [7]

Answer:

1) y > x

2) x > 5 > y

3) x ≤ 4  ( or 4 ≥ x )

4) x = y

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 1. y is greater than x

  2. so y > x

2) 1. 5 is less than x and more than y

   2. we can write this like x > 5 > y

   3. you can just squish them together as a shortcut usually: x > 5 and 5 > y      -->      x > 5 > y

3) 1. x is for at most, we can say this as x is less than or equal to 4

   2. this is written as x ≤ 4  or  4 ≥ x

4) 1. x - y = 0 so x and y must be the same value

   2. therefore x = y
