A rectangular flower bed is to be twice as long as it is wide. If the area enclosed must be greater than 50 m^2, what can you conclude about the width w of the flower bed? (Write your answer as an inequality.)
Solution
let the length of flower bed be L , width be W
A rectangular flower bed is to be twice as long as it is wide ==>L=2W
rea enclosed must be greater than 50 m^2
L*W >50
2W*W>50
W2>25
W>5
width w of the flower bed should be greater than 5 m
