Answer 3

@Coolguy25

I suggest you ignore @DERRICKCURRY - he is on some kind of trip posting random wrong answers - the above answer is incorrect.

Answer 4

the perimeter is 2l + 2w

the maximum perimeter is 200

so 2l + 2w = 200

the AREA is l * w

so - see if oyu can work from there to see what the expression in the question means...
