Question 175770This question is from textbook
: At most 500 feet of fencing is available for a steer pasture(assuming it's a rectangle). Ther is only space for the pasture to be 100 feet wide.
a. Write a system of two linear inequalities that describe this situation.
y < or = 100, with y being the width
2y + 2x < or equal to 500, which became y < or equal to -x + 250
b. Graph the system to show all possible solutions.
Drew a horizontal line on graph at y-axis 100, and shaded below the line.
Wasn't sure what to do with 2nd equation in graphing, particularly the slope. Feeling really stupid about this. :) :( Thanks for any help possible! This question is from textbook
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The line you draw on the graph is
This is in the form where is the slope, so
A slope of is perpendicular to a slope of
