The back of Dante's property is a creek. Dante would like to enclose a rectangular area, using the creek as one side and fencing for the other three sides, to create a pasture. If there is 960 feet of fencing available, what is the maximum possible area of the pasture?

Step-by-step explanation:

960/3. that's 320 a side. They said maximum, I'm guessing they just wanted you to use base times height as if it was a square, since I'm not seeing any other information. the maximum possible area would be, if the sides were 320 each would be 102,400 square feet. Maximum

b. 24 mm

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2 + 7^2 = 25^2

a^2 + 49 = 625

a^2 = 576

a = 24

answer: b. 24 mm
