Solution Summary
This solution encompasses the first derivative and area.
Solution Preview
Since both L and W are unknown, we need to setup two equations to solve for this.
A = L * W like you've stated and we know from the problem A = 200 , this gives the first equation [1]:
200 = L * W [1]
The second equation we setup is the maximization of the printed area Ap, this means it will be the L and W minus the ...
