Finding the Maximum Value of a Quadratic Function
A backyard farmer wants to enclose a rectangular space for a new garden within her fenced backyard. She has purchased 80 feet of wire fencing to enclose three sides, and she will use a section of the backyard fence as the fourth side.
ⓐFind a formula for the area enclosed by the fence if the sides of fencing perpendicular to the existing fence have length
ⓑWhat dimensions should she make her garden to maximize the enclosed area?
