About 12.56 units.
Solve for x by plugging in values into Pythagorean theorem.
$a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}$
$x^{2} +(x+12)^{2} = 34^{2}$
Simplify
$2x^{2} + 24x+144 = 1156$
Subtract 144 from both sides
$2x^{2} + 24x = 1012$
divide both sides by 2
$x^{2} + 12x = 506$
complete the square
$x^{2} + 12x + 36 = 506 +36 . = (x+6)^2 = 542$
take the square root of both sides.
$x+6 = 23.28$
subtract by 6 to get about 17.28 for x.
Plug in values for x to get distance traveled on outside of the yard.
17.28 + (17.28 +12) = 46.56
subtract 34 from the length to get the difference in travel. 46.56-34=12.56

-6-3-5

Hence inequality will be

$\\ \sf\longmapsto -6\leqslant 5$

#2.

3<5

But we need inequality

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3\leqslant 5$
