12. (Class work) (p.297, Q. 30) (a) A rectangle is constructed with one side on the positive x−axis, one
side on the positive y−axis, and the vertex opposite the origin on the line y = 10 − 2x. What dimensions
maximize the area of the rectangle, and the corresponding area? (b) Is it possible to construct a rectangle
with a larger area than that found in part (a) by placing one side of the rectangle on the line y = 10 − 2x,
and the two vertices not on that line on the positive x− and y−axes? Find the dimensions of the rectangle
constructed this way.
