Corral Design. A rancher has 360 yd of fencing with which to enclose two adjacent rectangular corrals. A river forms one side of the corrals (lengthwise). Suppose the width of each corral is x yards.
A. Express the total area of the two corrals as a function of x.
B. Find the domain of the function.
Please help ASAP. thank you so much. This question is from textbook college algebra third edition
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 3 sections of fence perpendicular to the river, each of
length . Since the total amount of fencing is 360 yds, I have is the width and is the length of 2 coralls answer
The domain is all values of that make
The expression equals when either
OR
There are 2 factors on the left side. The product is >0 when
either both are negative or both positive: (-)(-) or (+)(+) AND (this is (-)(-))
OR AND
The first condition is impossible, since it requires to be
negative and positive at the same time, so the domain is
