Ok, so today was short blocks so we didn't really get to terribly much accomplished. The class was basically a work period used for accelerated math and corrections of our questions that were homework last week. That doesn't really give me much to scribe about so I thought I would post some links that might be of use to someone.

Solving Linear Programming Problems: Question 2

A rectangle to be constructed has a length less than twice its width, its perimeter is at most 48 units, and its area is at least 32 square units.

L=length(x)

W=width(y)
a)Inequality that represents the relationship between the length and width.

~ l<2w

b)Inequality that represents the perimeter.

~2(l+w)<=48

c)Inequality that represents the area.

~ l*w>=32

d)Graph these inqualities

e)Give two possible solutions for the dimensions of the rectangle.
-(10,10)
-(5,15)
-(18,8)
