Answer:
The inequality is: [tex]5(x - 2) \geq 35[/tex]
The solution is: [tex]x \geq 9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle:
The area of a rectangle with length l and width w is given by:
A = lw
In this question:
Width 5 feet.
Length x - 2.
For which the area of the rectangle will be at least 35 square feet
Equal or greater than 35. So
[tex]5(x - 2) \geq 35[/tex]
[tex]5x \geq 45[/tex]
[tex]x \geq \frac{45}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x \geq 9[/tex]
