A)   'w' cannot be negative , so the largest area will occur when w = 0        526 m^2    (which is kinda comical having a w = 0 )

 

Are you sure you have the equation written correctly ????  Please proofread ....because none of these answers make sense!

 

B)    -2 (202) + 576 = _____________   (nonsensical answer)

C)    18 144   = - 2 w2 + 576       (another nonsensical answer)
