A farmer wants to construct a fence around a rectangular field. Sides with neighbours need reinforced fencing that costs $6 per meter. The other sides use regular fencing that costs $5 per meter. Assuming the farmer has neighbours on the west and south sides, answer the following questions. Give your answers as exact expressions or decimals accurate to at least two places. Find the dimensions that will cost the least to build a fence with an area of 1758 m². Length of east and west fences: m Length of north and south fences: m

A farmer wants to construct a fence around a rectangular field. Sides with neighbours need reinforced fencing that costs $8 per meter. The other sides use regular fencing that costs $7 per meter. Assuming the farmer has neighbours on the west and south sides, answer the following questions. Give your answers as exact expressions or decimals accurate to at least two places. N W E S Given a budget of $650, find the dimensions that give the maximum area inside the fencing. Length of east and west fences: Worksheet m Length of north and south fences: Worksheet m

A farmer wants to construct a fence around a rectangular field. Sides with neighbours need reinforced fencing that costs $9 per meter. The other sides use regular fencing that costs $5 per meter. Assuming the farmer has a neighbour on the north side, answer the following questions. Give your answers as exact expressions or decimals accurate to at least two places. N W E S Given a budget of $875, find the dimensions that give the maximum area inside the fencing. Length of east and west fences: m Length of north and south fences: m Find the dimensions that will cost the least to build a fence with an area of 2328 m2. Length of east and west fences: m Length of north and south fences: m
