    Answer: The system of inequalities would be,

    x + y ≤ 130, x > 0.25y, x ≥ 0, y ≥0

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Here, x represents the amount to be planted in tomatoes and y represents the amount to be planted in cucumbers, (in square ft)

    Thus, the total area required (in square ft) = x + y

    Since, the available area = 130 ft²,

    ⇒ Total area ≤ 130 ft²

    ⇒ x + y ≤ 130,

    ∵ the area planted with tomatoes to be more than 25% of the area planet with cucumbers,

    ⇒ x > 25% of y

    ⇒ x > 0.25y

    Also, area can not be negative,

    ⇒ x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
