6. A rancher has 200 feet of fencing with which to enclose two adjacent rectangular corrals. One of the corrals is bordered on one side by a barn. a) What dimensions should be used so that the enclosed area will be a maximum? (Be sure to use calculus to validate that your solution is indeed a maximum.) A = 2X X = 2x./200-4X - 200 . d A dx - 2oo8X b) What is that maximum area? - 0 20%0-8x=0...
