Question

Jim is setting up a rectangular dog run in
his backyard. He buys six 3-foot sections
of fencing and a 3-foot wide gate. What
are the dimensions of the dog run with
the greatest area in each situation?
a) Jim uses the yard fence for one side of
the dog run.
b) Jim uses the corner of the yard fence
for two sides of the dog run.

Answer 1

I see you'd rather keep posting this than actually work on it.

He has 7 sections of material to use.

(a) the dog run could be 3x15 (1x5 panels) or 6x9 (2x3 panels)

(b) 3x18 or 6x15 or 9x12

Now, was that so hard?
