larisa [96]

Answer:

a=35x−x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Having

70 ft of fencing with a

width of x

feet and knowing the perimeter of a rectangle is

p=2w+2l

we can state the length of the garden as:

70=2x+2l

and solving for l

we know the length with be:

2l=70−2x or l=35−x

And then knowing the formula for the area of a rectangle is

a=w⋅l

we can write the equation as:

a=x⋅(35−x)a=35x−x^2
