Riley has a farm on a rectangular piece of land that is 200200200 meters wide. This area is divided into two parts: A square area where she grows avocados (whose side is the same as the length of the farm), and the remaining area where she lives. Every week, Riley spends \$3$3dollar sign, 3 per square meter on the area where she lives, and earns \$7$7dollar sign, 7 per square meter from the area where she grows avocados. That way, she manages to save some money every week.

Write an inequality that models the situation. Use lll to represent the length of Riley's farm.

47 - 90 = 43

43 - 180 = x

x = 137

$4034.40

the perimeter of the field is the sum of the lengths of the four sides:

47 yd + 158 yd + 47 yd + 158 yd = 410 yd

the cost of 3 ft (1 yd) of fence is 3×$3.28 = $9.84.

so the cost of jake's wood perimeter fance is

(410 yd) × ($9.84 /yd) = $4034.40
