A shipping service restricts the dimensions of the boxes it will ship for a certain type of service. The restriction states that
Igoryamba

Answer:

w =< 70

(width is less or equal to 70 inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l = length, w = width, h = height

Restrictions given in this question:

'sum of perimeter of the base and the height cannot exceed 130 inches'

perimeter of the base is 2 width and 2 length of the box

perimeter = 2w + 2l

Therefore, inequality involves here is

2w + 2l + h =< 130

(Note that =< here means less or equal)

Then a new condition given with

height, h = 60 in

and length is 2.5 times the width

l = 2.5w

Substitute this new condition into the equation will give us the following:

2w + 2(2.5w) + 60 =< 130

2w + 5w + 60 =< 130

7w + 60 =< 130

7w =< 130-60

7w =< 70

w =< 10
