A shipping service restricts the dimensions of the boxes it will ship for a certain
type of service. The restriction states that for boxes shaped like rectangular 3 7
prisms, the sum of the perimeter of the base of the box and the height of the box
cannot exceed 130 inches. The perimeter of the base is determined using the k 11
width and length of the box. If a box has a height of 60 inches and its length is 12 n
2.5 times the width, which inequality shows the allowable width x, in inches, of the
box?
