A rancher has 1000 feet of fencing in which to construct adjacent, equally sized rectangular pens. What dimensions should these pens have to maximize the enclosed area?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The dimensions that will maximize the enclosed area of the pen is 250 ft by 250 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the perimeter as 1000

So the sum of the lengths will be

1000/2 = 500

The dimensions that will maximize these pens will be such that they will have equal values

Mathematically, that will be 500/2 = 250 by 250
