Perimeter = 2L + 2W →  240 = 2L + 2W  →  120 = L + W  → 120-L = W
Area = L x W  → Area = L(120-L)  →  Area = 120L - L²
Find the derivative:
dA/dL = 120 -2L → 0 = 120 - 2L → L = 60

Area = 120L - L² = 120(60) - (60)²  = 7200 - 3600 = 3600

The maximum area is 3600 yds²

Which is the equation of the line with slope o passing through the point (-3, 6)?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you are trying to say slope "0".

If the slope is 0, it means that the general equation Y = mX + c equals to Y = 0x + c and finally Y = c. Since the line is horizontal because it is 0 slope, Y = 6
