Accepted Answer

$$625\ 	ext{ft}^2$$

Question 2

Accepted Answer

$$x = 25,\ y = 25$$

Question 3

In the second image, a rancher wants to maximize the area of a rectangular pen with one side against a barn (no fence needed there), and the pen is subdivided into four smaller pens using three interior fences parallel to the shorter side. If the total fencing available is 1500 ft, what is the equation relating $$x$$ and $$y$$?

Accepted Answer

$$x + 5y = 1500$$

Question 4

Accepted Answer

$$x = 750,\ y = 150$$
