[SOLVED] Optimization Using Differentiation
I have an assignment in which we are to optimize problems using a given 6-step process. More or less it involves Max/Min differentiation.
On of the problems are as follow;
Enclosing the Largest Area
The owner of the Rancho Los Feliz has 3000 yd of fencing material to enclose the rectangular piece of grazing land along the striaght portion of a river. If fencing is not required along the river, what are the dimensions of the lagrgest area that the he can enclose? What is the area?
I under stand that...
a=xy
p=2x+2y
i understand one of the sides can be added to the other 3 sides, however, I'm not sure how to make this a function.
