Definitely could use some help. Would also be really appreciated if someone gave a breakdown of how they solved it. Thank you!!!

The rest of the side where the 8 is would 20 (28-8)

Set up proportions:

8/10 = 20/3x-5

Cross multiply

200 = 24x-40

Add 40 to both sides

240 = 24x

Divide both sides by 24

X = 10

Solve for the equation: 3x-5 = 3(10)-5 = 30-5 = 25

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
