Biggest Garden
Example 1. Problem. A farmer plans to make a rectangular
garden. One side will be against a long barn. He has 100 ft of
fencing that he will use to surround the other three sides. What
are the dimensions of the garden of maximum area?
x + 2y = 100
Area = A = xy =
(100 − 2y )y =
100y − 2y 2 . y

x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0. Since x = 100 − 2y , we see that 100 − 2y ≥ 0.

x ≥ 0 and y ≥ 0. Since x = 100 − 2y , we see that 100 − 2y ≥ 0.
So 100 ≥ 2y and 50 ≥ y .
