Answer:


3y^(2) -6y\geq 200

Explanation:

Let

x------> the length of the deck

y------> the width of the deck

we know that

The area of Ethan's deck is


xy\geq 200 -----> inequality A


x=3y-6 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in the inequality A


(3y-6)y\geq 200


3y^(2) -6y\geq 200 ------> inequality that can be solved to find possible widths for Ethan's deck
