Let x represent the length of the side of the pen that is parallel to the barn. Then the area (y) will be
.. y = x(300 -x)/2
This describes a downward opening parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=300. The vertex (maximum) will be found at the value of x that is halfway between those, x = 150.
For that value of x, the pen area is
.. y = 150(300 -150)/2 = 150^2/2 = 11,250 . . . . . square feet.
.. y = x(300 -x)/2

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
See attachment for complete question.
From the attachment, there are 3 columns and 3 rows
The 3 columns represent the first factor
To get the second factor, we have to analyze the 3 rows in the attachment.
Notice that the first row is bigger than the other two rows.
This big row will be represented with variable x
Notice that the boxes in second row are smaller than the first row and the + sign is written on each of the boxes.
This is represented with + 1
Also, notice that the boxes in third row are smaller than the first row and the + sign is written on each of the boxes.
This is also represented with + 1
Hence, the expression for the rows is x + 1 + 1 = x + 2
The product is then calculated as:
