Beth has 3000 feet of fencing available to enclose a rectangular field. One side of the field lies long river, so only three sides required fencing. 1. Express the area A of the rectangle as a function of X, where X is the length of the side parallel to the river. 2. Graph A=A(x) using a graphing utility. For what value of x is the area largest?
