Required:

Write the solution inequality in terms of width w.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle is w.

The perimeter of the rectangle is given by the formula:

`P=2(length+width)`
`\begin{gathered} 2(50+w)<180 \\ 50+w<90 \\ w<90-50 \\ w<40 \end{gathered}`

Final Answer:

The first option is the correct answer.
