Here are the solutions for each problem:

1.

  1. Define variables for the number of passengers.

    Let xx be the number of first-class passengers.
    Let yy be the number of second-class passengers.

  2. Formulate the inequality based on the total capacity.

    The total number of passengers (x+yx + y) should not exceed 200, meaning it must be less than or equal to 200.

    x+y≤200x + y \le 200

    The inequality is: x+y≤200\boxed{x + y \le 200}

    2.

  3. Define variables and costs.

    Let xx be the number of skilled workers.
    Let yy be the number of unskilled workers.
    Skilled workers are paid sh 1 600 per day.
    Unskilled workers are paid sh 800 per day.

  4. Formulate the total daily cost.

    Total cost = 1600x+800y1600x + 800y.

  5. Formulate the inequality based on the maximum expenditure.

    The total amount for hiring workers should not exceed sh 40 000.

    1600x+800y≤400001600x + 800y \le 40000
  6. Simplify the inequality by dividing by the greatest common divisor (800).

    1600x800+800y800≤40000800\frac{1600x}{800} + \frac{800y}{800} \le \frac{40000}{800} 2x+y≤502x + y \le 50

    The inequality in its simplest form is: 2x+y≤50\boxed{2x + y \le 50}

    3.

  7. Define variables and costs.

    Let xx be the number of invited guests.
    Cost for snacks per guest = sh 200.
    Cost for cake ingredients = sh 1 000.

  8. Formulate the total expected expenditure.

    Total expenditure = 200x+1000200x + 1000.

  9. Formulate the inequality based on the budget.

    Linet's budget is sh 5 000, so the total expenditure should not exceed this amount.

    200x+1000≤5000200x + 1000 \le 5000

    The inequality is: 200x+1000≤5000\boxed{200x + 1000 \le 5000}

    4.

  10. Define variables and registration fees.

    Let xx be the number of elite athletes.
    Let yy be the number of average athletes.
    Registration fee for elite athletes = sh 5 000.
    Registration fee for average athletes = sh 1 000.

  11. Formulate the total amount raised.

    Total amount raised = 5000x+1000y5000x + 1000y.

  12. Formulate the inequality based on the target amount.

    The planning committee intends to raise at least sh 1 000 000, meaning the amount raised must be greater than or equal to sh 1 000 000.

    5000x+1000y≥10000005000x + 1000y \ge 1000000
  13. Simplify the expression by dividing by the greatest common divisor (1000).

    5000x1000+1000y1000≥10000001000\frac{5000x}{1000} + \frac{1000y}{1000} \ge \frac{1000000}{1000} 5x+y≥10005x + y \ge 1000

    The simplified expression (inequality) is: 5x+y≥1000\boxed{5x + y \ge 1000}

    5.

  14. Define variables and bus capacities.

    Let XX be the number of type X buses.
    Let YY be the number of type Y buses.
    Capacity of type X bus = 64 learners.
    Capacity of type Y bus = 48 learners.

  15. Formulate the total capacity for learners.

    Total capacity = 64X+48Y64X + 48Y.

  16. Formulate the inequality based on the number of learners.

    The school needs to take 384 learners, so the total capacity must be at least 384.

    64X+48Y≥38464X + 48Y \ge 384
  17. Simplify the inequality by dividing by the greatest common divisor (16).

    64X16+48Y16≥38416\frac{64X}{16} + \frac{48Y}{16} \ge \frac{384}{16} 4X+3Y≥244X + 3Y \ge 24

    The linear inequality is: 4X+3Y≥24\boxed{4X + 3Y \ge 24}
