I really need help writing this out An overnight delivery service accepts packages of up to 165 inches in length and girth combined. (Girth is the distance around the package.) A package has a fixed girth of 53 inches. Determine (in terms of an inequality) those lengths for which a package is acceptable.

Write your answer in the form of an inequality.
