Answer:

Length of area is 857.14 ft

Width of area is 857.14 ft

Length of dividing fence is 857.14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have

Area of rectangle = Length × Width

The dimension, of the rectangle with the largest area is the dimension of a square, hence we have;

Length of rectangle = Width of rectangle = x

Hence,  the perimeter of the area = 4·x, while the width of the dividing fence = x

Therefore, since the we have;

Cost of the perimeter fence = $15/foot

Cost of the dividing fence = $10/foot

Then;

4·x × 15 + x × 10 = 60000

60·x + 10·x = 60000

x = 60000/70 = 857.14 ft

Which gives the following dimensions;

Length of area = 857.14 ft

Width of area = 857.14 ft

Length of dividing fence = 857.14 ft.

The length of a rectangle is 4 more than the width. Find the width of the rectangle if the area is 32.
Serggg [28]

Answer:

length = 8

width = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = length x breadth

Let x represent the width

length = x + 4

32 = x × (x + 4)

32 = x² + 4x

x² + 4x  - 32  = 0

solving using quadratic equation =

(x² - 4x) -32 + 8x

x = 4 or -8

since width cannot be a negative number, we would use 4
