A farmer has 2 fields. Each individual field has the same width(W). The length of the second field is triple the length of the first field(L). a.) Write equations for the total fencing required (P) to enclose both fields combined, and for the total area (A) of both fields combined, each in terms of L and W. b.) The farmer has a total of 1200 linear feet of fencing to enclose both fields combined. Rewrite the equation for the total area of both fields combined in terms of the width, W only. c.) What would be the maximum total combined area for these fields? d.) If the farmer doubled the amount of linear feet of fencing, then the maximum total combined area would : (choose one) a) double b) triple. c) quadruple. d) none of these
