X=side length of a campsite
12x(5+x)=1248  because each campsite has a length of x and there are 12                           and from the top of the camp to the water is the 5 yds + a                             side length and LW=1248
60x+12x^2=1248
12x^2+60x-1248=0
x^2+5-14=0
(x+7)(x-2)=0
x+7=0 or x-2=0
x=-7 or x=2
x=2 because width can't be negative
the width of one campsite is 2 yds
