Question 900661: A friend is building a dog pen with an area of 150 square feet. Each side must be at least 5 feet long.
A) list all possible dimensions of the dog pen.
B) what is the maximum amount of fence required to build the dog pen? How much fence is required?
Okay so I think this means the pen will have more than four sides. So I said 5x30 and 6x25. Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A) List all possible dimensions of the dog pen.
Impossible ! There is an infinite number of dimensions.
Integer dimensions are
5 30
6 25
10 15
15 10
25 6
30 5
If we are only using integer measurements
2*30+2*5=70 feet of fence
