1. You have that:

 - The homeowner<span> want the length of the swimming pool to be 4 feet longer than its width.</span> 
 - He wants to surround it with a concrete walkway 3 feet wide.
 - He can only afford 300 square feet of concrete for the walkway.

 2. Therefore, the tota area is:

 At=L2xW2

 L2 is the lenght of the walkway (L2=L1+3+3⇒L2=(W1+4+6)⇒L2=W1+10).
 W2 is the width of the walkway (W1+3+3⇒W2=W1+6)

 3. The area of the walkway is:

 A2=At-A1

 A2=300 ft²

 4. Therefore, you have that the width of the swimming pool is:

 A2=(W1+10)(W1+6)-(W1+4)(W1)
 300=(W1²+6W1+10W1+60)-(W1²+4W1)
 W1²+16W1+60-W1²-4W1-300=0
 12W1-240=0
 W1=240/12
 W1=20 ft

 5. And the length is:

 L1=W1+4
 L1=20+4
 L1=24 ft

Can someone help me for this question?​
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

2x + 1y =< 300

x + y =>150 units

y <= 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the numbers of corndogs and shakes that will be sold.

<u>1.</u>  The total cost of making these items is given by the sum of:

(x)(RM2) + (y)(RM1)

A total of RM300 is allocated for the cost of these items, so:

2x + 1y =< 300   [Units are RM)

<u>2.</u> Sales are expected to exceed 150 units, in total.  This means:

x + y =>150 units

<u>3.</u>  Sales for the shakes is less than 2 times that of the corndogs:

y <= 2x
