Answer:

BC = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

since B is the midpoint of AC, then AB = BC

AC = 8x - 20 & AB = 3x - 1

AC = AB + BC or 2AB

8x - 20 = 2(3x - 1)

8x - 20 = 6x - 2

subtract 6x form each side

2x - 20 = -2

add 20 to each side

2x - 20 + 20 = -2 + 20

2x = 18

x = 9

BC = 3x - 1

BC = 27 - 1

BC = 26

AC = 52

ICE Princess25 [194]
Let each side perpendicular to the river be "x".Then the side parallel to the river is "400-2x".
The formula for Area = width*length
A(x) = x(400-2x)
A(x) = 400x - 2x^2
You have a quadratic with a = -2 and b = 400
Maximum Area occurs where x = -b/2a = -400/(2*-2) = 100 ft. (width)
length = 400-2x = 400-2*100 =  200 ft (length)
