Apolice officer seals off the scene of an accident using a roll of yellow tape that is 304 feet long. what dimensions should be used to seal off the maximum rectangular area around the collision? (enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

The dimension are 76, 76 feet      

Explanation:

Given total length of the tape =  304 feet

Let x be one dimension of the rectangle

     y be the other dimension of the rectangle

Therefore we know, Area of the rectangle = x . y

                         Also Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 (x + y)

                                                                     304 = 2 (x + y)

                                                                      152 = x + y

                                                                       y = 152 - x --------(1)

Therefore substituting this in the area of the rectangle,

      Area = x . (152 - x)

               = 152x - x²

Therefore to find the maximum area covered, we need to differentiate the area.

Therefore, = 152x - x²

                  152x - x² = 0

                   152 - 2x  = 0

                     152 = 2x

                      x = 76

Substituting the value of 'x' in the equation (1), we get

          y = 152 - x

           y = 152 - 76

           y = 76

Therefore the dimensions the get maximum area is  x = 76 and y = 76.

Hence the answer is ---

The dimension are 76, 76 feet      

answer; /// more likely to fight in the future;

first of all, it's important to say that the book we shall not be moved, written by joan dash, is about the first strike of women in the united states in the year 1909. the best historical detail to clarify the reader's undertanding is the phrase "general strike". this strike involved women working at a garment factory who decided to protest   long working hours, low wages and brutal conditions. this strike became known as "the new york shirtwaist strike" or "the uprising of the 20,000". the strike mostly involved jewish women who did not speak english or who had a basic knowledge of the english language. finally, the strike went on from november 1909 until february 1910.
