15) Lisa is planning a rectangular garden that is to be twice as long as it is wide. If she can
afford to buy at most 180 feet of fencing, then what are the possible values of the width?
16) Your evil math teacher, who shall go nameless, is only giving two tests for the whole grading
period. They count equally-your grade will be the average of the two tests. Your score a 90 on the
first test. Write an inequality to describe what range of values your second test grade can be in
order for you to bring home an A on your report card. (“A” means 93 or above.)
