Please show me how to set this up:

A local citizen wants to fence a rectangular community garden. The length of the garden should be at least 110ft., and the distance around should be no more than 380ft. Write a system of inequalities that models the possible dimensions of the garden.

L >= 110
P <= 380
Now, 2(W+L) = P
W+L <= 190

So,
L >= 110
W <= 80
