Area=xy\\\\substitute\ y=40-x\\\\Area=x(40-x)=-x^2+40\\(it's\ quadratic\ function\ where\ a=-1;b=40;c=0)\\\\vertex\ of\ parabola:p=\frac{-b}{2a}\to p=\frac{-40}{2\cdot(-1)}=\frac{-40}{-2}=20-it's\ max\\\\x=20\ then\ y=40-20=20\\\\Answer:dimensions\ of\ rectangular\ is\ 20\ yd\ \times\ 20\ yd,\\and\ area\ is\ 20^2=400\ yd^2.
