A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular field that encloses 3600 square feet. One side of the field is along a river and does n

andriy [413]

Answer:

C(x) = $\$3.50(\frac{x^2+7200}{x})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Area of the field = 3600 square feet

Fencing charges = $3.50 per foot

Let the side along the river be 'x' feet and the other side of the 'B'

now,

Area of rectangle = Bx = 3600 square feet

B = $\frac{3600}{x}$ feet

and total length to be fenced = x + 2B

therefore,

Total cost of fencing = Fencing charges × total length to be fenced

Total cost of fencing = $3.50 × ( x + 2B )

substituting the value of B from (1)

Total cost of fencing, C(x) = $\$3.50(x+2\times\frac{3600}{x})$

C(x) = $\$3.50(\frac{x^2+7200}{x})$
