Question 1-2 X Astudent cuts a 12-inch piece of wire into two unequal pieces. One piece of length x is bent into the shape of a square and the second piece, of length 12 - x is bent to make an equilateral triangle. A formula describing the total area of the two shapes is A (\\) = (4 2 A. Use a graphing utility to identify where the cut should be made in order to minimize the combined area of the shapes. B. What does the y-intercept of the function represent in the context of the problem identified
