Lacinda has 120 ft of fencing to make a rectangular kennel for her dogs. the house is to be used as one side of the kennel. what length will maximize the area of the kennel?

1,800

Step-by-step explanation:

According to my research, the formula for the Area of a rectangle is the following,

Where

Since the house wall is acting as one side length of the rectangle. We are left with 1 length and 2 width sides. To maximize the Area of the kennel we will need to equally divide the 120 ft of fencing between the Length and Width.

120 / 2 = 60ft

So We have 60 ft for the length and 60 ft for the width. Since the width has 2 sides we need to divide 60 by 2.

60/2 = 30 ft

Now we can calculate the maximum Area using the values above.

So the Maximum area we are able to create with 120ft of fencing is 1,800
