Answer: The garden has dimensions 30 ft wide X 60 ft long
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote by W the width of the garden and L the length of the garden (longer side) as in the figure attached. The red sides on the figure represent the parts of the garden that require fencing.
L is also the measure of a vertical side of the garden, because a rectangle consists only of vertical and horizontal sides.
We know that the barn is parallel to the longer (vertical) side, so only one of the vertical sides L of the rectangle needs fencing. The other two parts correspond to the horizontal sides of the rectangle so they require 2W feet of fencing. Altogether, the 120 ft of fencing enclose the L+2W ft of the fence, then 120=L+2W. Because the longer side is twice the width, we have that L=2W, so 120=2W+2W=4W. From here, W=30 ft and L=2(30)= 60ft.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a rectanguiar shape like this one is V = L * W * H, where the letters represent Length, Width and Height. Here L is the longest dimension and is 28 - 2x; W is the width and is 22-2x; and finally, x is the height. Thus, the volume of this box must be
V(x) = (28 - 2x)*(22 - 2x)*x
and we want to maximize V(x).
One way of doing that is to graph V(x) and look for any local maximum of the graph. We'd want to determine the value of x for which V(x) is a maximum.
Another way, for those who know some calculus, is to use the first and second derivatives to identify the value of x at which V is at a maximum.
I have provided the function that you requested. If you'd like for us to go all the way to a solution, please repost your question.
Let h = height of the box,
x = side length of the base.
Volume of the box is

.
So

Surface area of a box is S = 2(Width • Length + Length • Height + Height • Width).
So surface area of the box is


The surface are is supposed to be the minimum. So we'll need to find the first derivative of the surface area function and set it to zero.

![4x = \frac{460}{ x^{2} } \\ 4x^{3} = 460 \\ x^{3} = 115 \\ x = \sqrt[3]{115} = 4.86](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%204x%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B460%7D%7B%20x%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%20%20%5C%5C%20%204x%5E%7B3%7D%20%3D%20460%20%20%5C%5C%20x%5E%7B3%7D%20%3D%20115%20%20%5C%5C%20x%20%3D%20%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B115%7D%20%3D%204.86%20)
Then

So the box is 4.86 in. wide and 4.87 in. high.
