Jacob wants to build a rectangular enclosure for his animals. One side of the pen will be against the barn,so he needs no fence on that side.
Let w be the width of the enclosure (perpendicular to the barn) and let l be the length of the enclosure (parallel to the barn).
one side of the length is not counted for perimeter because one side of length will be against the barn.
Perimeter = 400 ft
Perimeter of rectangle = L + W + W
400 = L + 2W
L = 400 - 2W
Area = L * W
Replace L by 400 - 2W
A(W) = (400 - 2W) * W

Now we find out x coordinate of vertex to find the width that maximize the area

a= -2 and b = 400

The width w would maximize the area is w = 100ft
To find maximum area we plug in 100 for W in A(W)


the maximum area is 20,000 square feet
All I know is they can’t be parallel because they don’t have the same gradient. I don’t think they are perpendicular either but don’t fully trust me on that
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a librarian has a set of ten different books, including four different books about Abraham Lincoln.
The librarian wants to put the ten books on a shelf with the four Lincoln books next to each other, somewhere on the shelf among the other six different books.
First arrnage the 6 other books in the shelf.
This can be done in 
Now arrange the 4 books of Lincoln
This can be done in 
Now we have 7 places to insert Lincoln books including two corners and in between.
Thus this can be done in 7 ways
Total no of ways =
