First, I would switch the sides of the equation around.

15c + 3/6 = -12

Then, simplify the equation.

15c + 1/2 = -12

Now, we need to get 15c alone since it carries the variable. We can do this by canceling 1/2 out by subtracting 1/2. Remember what you do to one side you must do to the other.

15c +1/2 = -12
-1/2 -1/2
↓
15c = -12.5

Next, get c by itself by dividing both sides by 15, because what you do to one side you must do to the other .

15c ÷ 15 = -12.5 ÷ 15
↓
c = -5/6

ol McDonald would like to build a pin for his favorite pig horse and cow he needs to enclose a rectangular plot of land into thr

garri49 [273]

The area of the pen is the products of its dimensions

The dimension of the pen is 300 by 120 feet
The maximum area of the pen is 36000 square feet.

Let the dimension of the fence be x by y.

So, we have:

<em /> $\mathbf{2x + 5y = 1200}$ <em> --- perimeter</em>

<em /> $\mathbf{Area =xy}$ <em> -- area</em>

<em />

Subtract 5y from both sides of $\mathbf{2x + 5y = 1200}$

$\mathbf{2x = 1200 - 5y}$

Divide both sides by 2

$\mathbf{x = \frac{1200 - 5y}{2}}$

Substitute $\mathbf{x = \frac{1200 - 5y}{2}}$ in $\mathbf{Area =xy}$

$\mathbf{Area = \frac{1200 - 5y}{2} \times y}$

$\mathbf{Area = \frac{1200y - 5y^2}{2}}$

Split

$\mathbf{Area = 600y - \frac{5}{2}y^2}$

Differentiate

$\mathbf{A' = 600 -5y}$

Set to 0

$\mathbf{600 -5y = 0}$

Add 5y to both sides

$\mathbf{5y = 600}$

Divide both sides by 5

$\mathbf{y = 120}$

Substitute $\mathbf{y = 120}$ in $\mathbf{x = \frac{1200 - 5y}{2}}$

$\mathbf{x = \frac{1200 - 5 \times 120}{2}}$

$\mathbf{x = \frac{1200 - 600}{2}}$

$\mathbf{x = \frac{600}{2}}$

$\mathbf{x = 300}$

Recall that:

$\mathbf{Area =xy}$

So, we have:

$\mathbf{Area = 300 \times 120}$

$\mathbf{Area = 36000}$

Hence, the maximum area of the pen is 36000 square feet.
