Question

The length of a rectangle is 2 ft shorter than 5 times its width, x. The area of the rectangle is less than 100 f12.

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle  = length x width

length = 5x - 2

width = x

area = (5x - 2) × x

100 = 5x² - 2x

the width would be less than the area of the rectangle, thus the inequality sign to be used is <

5x² - 2x < 100
