A carpenter is building a rectangular shed with a fixed perimeter of 54 ft. What are the dimensions of the largest shed that can be built? What is its area?

the Largest shed dimension is 13.5 ft by 13.5 ft

Largest Area is 182.25 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Perimeter = 54 ft

P = 2( L + B ) = 54ft

L + B = 54/2

L + B = 27 ft

B = 27 - L Let this be equation 1

Area A = L × B

from equ 1, B = 27 - L

Area A = L × ( 27 - L)

A = 27L - L²

for Maxima or Minima

dA/dL = 0

27 - 2L = 0

27 = 2L

L = 13.5 ft

Now, d²A/dL² = -2 < 0

That is, area is maximum at L = 13.5 using second derivative test

B = 27 - L

we substitute vale of L

B = 27 - 13.5 = 13.5 ft

Therefore the Largest shed dimension = 13.5 ft by 13.5 ft

Largest Area = 13.5 × 13.5 = 182.25 ft²

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
