You plan to put a fence around a rectangular lot. The length of the lot must be at most 36 feet. The cost of the fence along the length of the lot is $1.50 per foot, and the cost of the fence along the width is $2.00 per foot. The total cost cannot exceed $360.00.
a. Use two variables to write a system of inequalities that models the problem.

let's assume that the length is x and width is y:
2*1.5x + 2*2y <= 360
3x + 4y<=360
2*1.5x + 2*2y <= 360
3x + 4y<=360
-
L <= 36
(2L)1.5 + (2W)2.0 <= 360
where L is the length and W is the width
1.5 and 2.0 are the cost of the materials
(2L)1.5 + (2W)2.0 <= 360
where L is the length and W is the width
1.5 and 2.0 are the cost of the materials

Let x = length ans y = width
x < or - 35
2(1.50)x + 2(2.O)Y < or = 360
3x +4y < or = 360
x < or - 35
2(1.50)x + 2(2.O)Y < or = 360
3x +4y < or = 360
-
2*1.5(l)+2*2(w )<360
L<36
L<36

BOTH ANSWERS R CORRECT :)
