    1) The length of the area should be at least 20 ft,

    Call x the length and y the width

    =>x ≥20

    2) the distance around should be no more than 100 ft.

    the distance around is the perimeter of the rectangle

    perimeter = 2 (length + width) = 2length+2width

    =>2x+2y≤100

    System:

    1) x ≥ 20

    2) 2x + 2y ≤ 100
