A friend has given you left-over landscaping bricks. You

You would like the garden bed to be slightly more than
twice as ong as it is wide, as shown in the diagram below.
You have also given yourself a budget of $125 for
additional materials should you need them. Your local
home improvement store sells the same bricks for $1.98
per brick. The displayed sides present the number of
bricks on each side, where x is a number of bricks.
