You are fencing in a rectangular area for a garden.
You have only 150 ft of fence.
You want the length of the garden to be at least 40 ft.
You want the width of the garden to be at least 5 ft.
What is a graph showing the possible dimensions your garden can have?
�What variables will you use? What will they represent?
L = length:: W = width

�How many inequalities do you need to write?
L >= 40 ft
W >= 5 ft
2L + 2W <= 150
