I really need help with this question. I am doing Algebra NJSLAM practice and I’m not sure how to do this problem.

Part A Which of the following is an expression for a in terms of x Part B What is the maximum area in square feet for the garden if 44 feet of fencing are used class=

Respuesta :

the first choice is correct

The maximum area of the rectangle will be 242 square ft. The expression for a in terms of x will be 44 - 2x. Then the correct option is C.

What is a rectangle?

It is a polygon with four sides. The total interior angle is 360 degrees. A rectangle's opposite sides are parallel and equal, and each angle is 90 degrees. Its diagonals are all the same length and intersect in the center.

If the a, b, and x are 44 ft. Then the expression for a in terms of x will be

We know that b = x

Then we have

a + b + x = 44

   a + 2x = 44

           a = 44 - 2x

Then the area opf the rectangle will be

Area = (44 - 2x)x

Area = 44x - 2x²

For maximum area the value of  x will be 11. Then we have

Area = 44 × 11 - 2 × 11²

Area = 242 square ft
