Question

A pair of weak earthquakes are modeled by nonlinear inequalities. One earthquake occurred roughly 15 km south and 18 km west of the center of Salt Lake City, Utah. The quake could be felt 16 km away. A couple of days later another earthquake occurred 9 km north and 4 km east of the center of Salt Lake City and could be felt 21 km away. If Salt Lake City is located at (0, 0) on a coordinate grid, the system below represents this scenario.
