I would like to create a rectangular orchid garden that abuts my house so that the house itself forms the northern boundary. The fencing for the southern boundary costs $30 per foot, and the fencing for the east and west sides costs $15 per foot. If I have a budget of $120 for the project, what are the dimensions of the garden with the largest area I can enclose?

45 I believe and then you divide by 120
