Flip divide both sides answer b= 1/6
The 40 feet of fencing which covers at least 182 square feet gives the possible lengths of x as x ≥ 13 or x ≤ 7
<h3>How can the area be expressed as an inequality?</h3>
Length of the fencing = 40 feet
Number of sides covered = Three sides
Area of the fencing ≥ 182 square feet
Length of the shorter side of the pen = x
The area is therefore;
2•x² - 40•x + 182 ≥ 0
2•(x² - 20•x + 91) ≥ 0
2•(x² - 13•x - 7•x + 91) ≥ 0
2•(x•(x - 13) - 7•(x - 13) ≥ 0
Which gives;
The solution to the inequality and the possible lengths of <em>x </em>are;<em> </em>x ≥ 13 or x ≤ 7
