Answer:

5600 square feet is the area.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter will be = 300 feet

Length of the fence enclosure must be at least 80 feet.

Width of the fence enclosure must be at least 40 feet.

Let x be the length and y be the width of the court.

We get following constraints:

x \geq 80

y \geq 40

If we calculate the area, we get xy \geq3200

And for the perimeter we get: 2x+2y=300  

⇒ x+y= 150

Now look at the graph attached, we get point (80,70) as the possible solution.

So, the maximum area occurs when the dimensions are 80 feet by 70 feet.
