Question

Irina wants to build a fence around a rectangular vegetable garden so that it has a width of at least 10 feet. She can use a maximum of 150 feet of fencing. The system of inequalities that models the possible lengths, l, and widths, w, of her garden is shown. w ≥ 10 2l + 2w ≤ 150 On a coordinate plane, 2 solid straight lines are shown. The first line is horizontal to the y-axis at y = 10. Everything above the line is shaded. The second line has a negative slope and goes through (0, 75) and (75, 0). Everything to the left of the line is shaded. Which length and width are possible dimensions for the garden? l = 20 ft; w = 5 ft l = 20 ft; w = 10 ft l = 60 ft; w = 20 ft l = 55 ft; w = 30 ft

Answer 1

Answer:

In option a, w < 10

in option b, w = 10 and 2(20) + 2(10) = 40 + 20 = 60 < 150

in option c, w > 10 but 2(60) + 2(20) = 120 + 40 = 160 > 150

In option d, w > 10 but 2(55) + 2(30) = 110 + 60 = 170 > 150

Therefore the corect answer is option b.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is B: l = 20 ft; w = 10 ft.

i just took the quiz and got it right

hope this helps you (:
