Answer:
The largest area enclosed is A = xy = 6 feet
6 feet = 36 
Step-by-step explanation:
i) The perimeter of the area is 2
(x + y) =24 ∴ x + y = 12 ∴ y = 12 - x
ii) The area of rectangle enclosed A = xy ⇒ A = x ( 12 - x) = 12x - 
iii) differentiating both sides of the equation in ii) we get
⇒ x = 6 feet
iv) Differentiating both sides of equation in iii) we get
= -2
Therefore the area enclosed is maximum as the double derivative is negative
v) therefore for largest area enclosed x = 6 feet and y = 12 - 6 = 6 feet
vi) therefore the largest area enclosed is
A = xy = 6 feet
6 feet = 36 
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total of 2000 voters......1650 said they would vote for candidate A
the percent who voted for candidate A is : 1650/2000 = 0.825
multiply that by 100 to get ur percent....0.825 * 100 = 82.5% <==
