Why is the answer for letter b 9?

Step-by-step explanation:

From x=0 to x=1, the function is above the x-axis, so the area is positive.

From x=1 to x=5, the area above the x-axis is greater than the area below the x-axis, so the net area is positive.

From x=5 to x=9, the area above the x-axis is greater than the area below the x-axis, so the net area is positive.

Since the area increases in each interval, the area is a maximum at x=9.

area = length x width

length = 2 x width

32 = 2 x width x width

32 = 2 x width^2

36 = width ^2  

width = 6

length = 12

area is 32

perimeter = 2 x 12 + 2 x 6 = 24 + 12 = 36
