To compare measurements of different units, it is necessary to convert one to the form of the other. Let us try to convert 85g to ounces using the following relation: 1g = 0.035274 oz
85g * (0.035274oz / 1g) = 2.99829 oz.
Therefore, 3 oz is heavier than 85 g.
I have attached a screenshot with the images of the two popcorn bags used by the theater.
Part (a):Bag A:Volume of bag = area of base * height
Volume of bag = length * width * height
We have:
volume = 96 in³
length = 3 in
width = 4 in
Therefore:
96 = 3 * 4 * height
96 = 12 * height
height of bag A = 8 inBag B:Volume of bag = area of base * height
Volume of bag = length * width * height
We have:
volume = 96 in³
length = 4 in
width = 4 in
Therefore:
96 = 4 * 4 * height
96 = 16 * height
height of bag B = 6 inPart (b):To determine the amount of paper needed, we will need to calculate the surface of each bag. Excluding the top base, each bag will have 5 faces. Four side faces (each two opposite are equal) and the base.
Bag A:Surface area = area of base + 2*area of front face + 2*area of side face
Surface area = (3*4) + 2(8*4) + 2(8*3)
Surface area = 12 + 64 + 48
Surface area of bag A = 124 in²Bag B:Surface area = area of base + 2*area of front face + 2*area of side face
Surface area = (4*4) + 2(6*4) + 2(6*4)
Surface area = 16 + 48 + 48
Surface area of bag B = 112 in²From the above calculations, we can deduce that
the theater should choose bag B in order to reduce the amount of paper needed.
Hope this helps :)

Micah did not explain the last step correctly. You cannot cross out a term from the numerator and denominator unless it is a factor. In other words, x² needed to be multiplied and not added in order to cross it out.
E=16 pls brainliest me have a good day/night
