Shivam's father is a building contractor. One day Shivam got his father’s measuring tape. He used it to find the dimensions of the kitchen garden in his home. He found that the length of the garden is one metre more than twice its breadth. He told his friend Akhil that the perimeter of the garden is more than or equal to 110 m and is less than or equal to 140 m.
Based on this information, answer the following questions:

Assertion (A) : If 8 < 5(x + 1) - 2 ≤ 18, x ∈ R, then the smallest integer value of x is 0.
Reason (R) : Multiplying each side of an inequation by the same integer does not change inequality.
A is true, R is false
A is false, R is true
Both A and R are true
Both A and R are false
