Oliver’s company needs to enclose a rectangular area of 5200 square feet on three sides with barbed wire fencing. Find the dimensions of that will minimize the amount of fencing required (thus minimizing building cost). Hint: minimizing the amount of fencing is equivalent to minimizing the perimeter, or distance around, the three sides of the enclosure.
Area of the garden = 5200 m2
⇒ l × b = 5200
⇒ l = 5200/b
Garden is fenced on three sides.
Length of fencing = 2b + l
⇒ 2*(5200/l) + l, differentialting it to
minimize,
⇒ -10400 / l^2 + 1 = 0,
l = sqrT( 10400) = 101.9804 ft
So, and b = 5200/101.9804 = 50.9902 ft
So, the dimensions of that will minimize the amount of fencing are l = 101.9804 ft , b= 50.9902 ft

A fence is to be built to enclose a rectangular area of 230 square feet. The fence along three sides is to be made of material that costs 5 dollars per foot, and the material for the fourth side costs 15 dollars per foot. Find the dimensions of the enclosure that is most economical to construct.
7. 10 pt A fence is to be built to enclose cows in a rectangular area of 200 square feet. The fence along three sides is to be made of material that costs $5 per foot, and the material for the fourth side costs $16 dollars per foot. Find the dimensions of the enclosure that minimize cost, and give the minimum cost to build the fence.
A rancher has 5370 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular area bordering a river. He wants to separate his cows and horses by dividing the enclosure into two equal parts. If no fencing is required along the river, find the length of the center partition that will yield the maximum area. Find the length of the side parallel to the river that will yield the maximum area. Find the maximum area.
6. (15) A farmer wishes to enclose a 4000 square meter field and subdivide it into four rectangular plots of equal area with fences parallel to one of the sides. Use the derivative to calculate what the dimensions of the field should be in order to minimize the amount of fencing required.

losing the most Area with a fence We need to enclose a rectangular field with a fence. We have 500 feet of fencing material and a building is on one side of the field and so won't need any fencing. Determine the dimensions of the field that will enclose the largest area. 1) a) For what value of X is the area largest? b) What is the maximum Area?
A farmer is building a fence to enclose a rectangular area consisting of two separate regions. The four walls and one additional vertical segment (to separate the regions) are made up of fencing, as shown below. If the farmer has 162 feet of fencing, what are the dimensions of the region which enclose the maximal area?

Problem 2 A company needs to order the material needed for constructing rectangular crates. The sides of these crates need to be a wire fencing material that can only be cut into whole number lengths and widths in order to properly assemble the crate. The crate is the shape of a right-rectangular prism. The sides of these crates are wire fencing that costs $5 or $6 per square foot (choose one). The top of these crates are made of hardwood...
