A farmer has 1,200 feet of fencing and wants to fence off a rectangular field that borders a straight river. He needs no fence along the river. Write the function that will produce the largest area if x is the short side of the rectangle.

f (x) = 1200x - x2

My answer choice. Is this correct? - >f (x) = - 2x2 + 1200x

f (x) = x2 - 1200

f (x) = 2x2 - 1200
