Step-by-step explanation:

There really is not enough information here. You have not indicated how x is related to the rectangle.Perhaps (as an alternative to the assumption I made [above]), you meant for x > 0 to be the length of one side of a square.

I have attached the answer in the picture.

To represent the values of x for which the area of the rectangle will be at least 35 square feet, set up the inequality L x W ≥ 35.

To represent the values of x for which the area of the rectangle will be at least 35 square feet, we can set up an inequality.

Let's assume the length of the rectangle is L and the width is W. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its length and width. So, the inequality is: L x W ≥ 35.

To solve the inequality, we need more information about the relationship between L and W. If they are both positive, we can use their product to represent the area.

However, if L and W can be negative, we need more information to determine the possible values of x. Please provide more context or constraints so we can provide a specific solution.
