## Question 5:
### Part (i)
| Answer | Marks | Guidance |
|--------|-------|----------|
| Let $x$ be the number of snowboards | B1 | |
| Let $y$ be the number of (pairs of) skis | B1 | or vice-versa |
| $x + y \leq 600$ | B1 | |
| $x \leq 250$ and $y \leq 500$ | B1 | both |
| $1.1x \leq y$ | B1 | |
| FT horizontal line | B1 | FT horizontal line |
| FT vertical line | B1 | FT vertical line |
| FT positive slope line | B1 | FT positive slope line |
| $x+y = 600$ line | B1 | $x+y=600$ |
| Shading — pentagon bounded by y-axis, horizontal line, vertical line, negatively inclined line and positively inclined line | B1 | follow any such pentagon |
