You have a large brown wall in your yard. You are going to use part of that wall to enclose a rectangle and separate it into three pens as shown below. You have $6720 to spend on fencing to enclose this rectangular area. You also want to make THREE pens as shown below. You are also using the wall as one horizontal side of the area so you do NOT need to provide fencing on that side. The cost of the outside fencing (in purple) is $4.00 per foot and the two vertical fences inside the pen (in green) costs $7.00 per foot. You desire to enclose the largest possible area you can. What is the largest total area you can enclose? Do NOT use calculus to solve this problem. Use your graphing calculator or a Desmos graph to help answer it at the end of your work. largest area - feetO square feetO dollars per footO dollars per square foot Did you indicate the units also?
