A farm irrigation system waters a large field. Consider the center of the field as the origin and the rest of the field as a grid measured in yards. The first irrigation unit is located at the point (–400, –200) and waters 500 yards in every direction. The second is located at (200, 300) and waters 400 yards in every direction. The system of inequalities represents this scenario.
