Answer:
2.50x+1.75y<=200
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the data
Total amount of money available $200
Cost of cedar is $2.50 per feet. The the cost of pine $1.75 per feet
x=# of feet of cedar brought
y=# of feet of pine brought
As the cost of cedar wood is $2.50 and x is the # of feet of cedar brought, so the total cost of # of the wood is $2.50x
As the cost of pine is $1.75 and y is the # of feet of pine brought, so the total cost of # of the wood is $1.75y
The total cost of the # of cedar and pine woods together is
$2.50x+$1.75y
And the total amount available is 200, and it doesn't exceed so
$2.50x+$1.75y<= 200
Answer:
$2.5X + $1.75Y = $200
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of money budgeted for the outdoor furniture = $200
1 foot of Cedar wood costs $2.50
1 foot of Pine wood costs $1.75
The number of feet of cedar wood that can be used is denoted by X
The number of feet of pine wood that can be used is denoted by Y
Thus, $2.5 multiplied by X shows the cost of X number of cedar wood I.e. $2.5x
$1.75 multiplied by Y shows the cost of Y number of pine wood i.e. $1.75Y
Therefore, the amount of foot cedar wood bought and pine wood bought must equal the budgeted amount i.e.
$2.5X + $1.75Y = $200
