Let x = length and y = width
You would have 2 lengths, so 2x and 3 widths, so 3y
Those need to equal total length of fence:
2x + 3y = 1200
The 3 widths would equal total fence minus the 2 lengths:
3Y = 1200-2x
Solve for y: y = 400 -2/3x
Area = length x width = xy. Replace y :
Area = x(400-2/3x) = 400x-2/3x^2
Differentiate:
400-4x/3 =0
4x/3 = 400
4x = 1200
X = 300
Y = 400-2/3(300) = 200
The dimension would be 300 ft x 200 ft

Answer:
To get 20 cups of purple paint, the table shows that we need 8 cups of blue paint and 12 cups of red paint. We can solve the problem using double (or triple) number lines.
Y = 5
3(3y - 15) is also equal to 9y - 45, which means to find y, you have to divide 45 by 9, which is 5.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Pythagorean Theorem we know
h^2=x^2+y^2 (where h is the hypotenuse and x and y are sides of a right triangle)
w^2+18^2=30^2
w^2=30^2-18^2
w^2=900-324
w^2=576
w=24 in
