Answer: 126.48x+109.56 would be the largest possible perimeter if the area is 1000x + 750.

Step-by-step explanation: Not 100% certain of this answer.

find square root...

31.62x+27.39

that would give us 4 sides and since perimeter of rectangle is 2l+2w...

4(31.62x+27.39)=

126.48x+109.56 would be the largest possible perimeter if the area is 1000x + 750.
