The length of the run is at most 15 yards

How to determine the true statement?

The given parameters are:

Width = 5 yards

Height = x

Perimeter = Not more than 40 yards

The perimeter is calculated as:

P  = 2 *(Width + Height)

So, we have:

2 *(5 + x) ≤40

Divide by 2

5 + x ≤ 20

Subtract 5 from both sides

x ≤ 15

This implies that the length of the run is at most 15 yards
