He needs to maximize the area using 100 feet of fencing. The quadratic function A(x)=x(1002x) gives the area, A, of the dog run for the length, x, of the building that will border the dog run. Find the length of the building that should border the dog run to give the maximum area, and then find the maximum area of the dog run.
