A farmer wants to build a rectangular pen and then divide it with two interior fences. The total area inside of the pen will be 936 square meters. The exterior fencing costs $28.80 per meter and the interior fencing costs $18.00 per meter. Find the dimensions of the pen that will minimize the cost.
