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
