The dimensions that would result to maximum area will be found as follows:
let the length be x, the width will be 32-x
thus the area will be given by:
P(x)=x(32-x)=32x-x²
At maximum area:
dP'(x)=0
from the expression:
P'(x)=32-2x=0
solving for x
32=2x
x=16 inches
thus the dimensions that will result in maximum are is length=16 inches and width=16 inches
Answer:
400/1000×100%
40% is the percent of decrease from 1,000 to 400.
I believe it is (2+2) × (3+3)
