Answer:

a)   7t  - 560 ≤  140    is the required inequality to represent the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the number of tickets sold.

The amount allocated by school council for all supplies =  $560

The selling price of each ticket = $7

The aim to earn profit  =  more than $140

Goal reached if Number of tickets sold  = 100

Now, SP of each  ticket is $7

⇒Selling price of t tickets   = t x ($7) =  7t

PROFIT = TOTAL SELLING Price  - TOTAL COST

or, $140  =   7t   -  $560

According to the question:

7t  - 560 ≤  140

if t = 100, then the profit earned = 7(100)  - 560 = 140

Hence, t = 100 is the possible solution of the given expression.

<span>Angle TSQ measures 68 degrees. When a ray bisects an angle, it divides it into two equal parts. Each part is one-half the measurement of the original angle. Several rays are described as bisecting different angles. I would sketch a diagram to keep track of all the different rays and angles.
       
A. Since angle RST is bisected by ray SQ, angle RSQ and angle QST are each half the size of angle RST.
       
B. Since angle RSQ is bisected by ray SP, angle RSP and angle PSQ are each half the size of angle RSQ.
       
C. Since angle RSP is bisected by ray SV, angle RSV and angle VSP are each half the size of angle RSP. We are given the measurement of angle VSP as 17 degrees. To find the measure of angle RSP, we notice in statement C above that VSP is half the size of angle RSP. If we double angle VSP's measurement (multiply by 2), we get angle RSP measures 34 degrees. Using similar logic and statement B above, we double RSP's measurement of 34 to get angle RSQ's measurement. Double 34 is 68, angle RSQ's measurement in degrees. From statement A above, we notice that RSQ's measurement is equal to that of angle QST's. Therefore, angle QST also measures 68 degrees. However, the question asks us to find the measurement of angle TSQ. However, angle QST and angle TSQ are the same. Either description can be used. Therefore, the measurement of angle TSQ is 68 degrees.</span>

I need to find side x in its simplest radical form using the special right triangles method
crimeas [40]

Answer:

\sqrt{6}

Explanation:

From the given diagram,

Hypotenuse sde = x

Opposite side = \sqrt{3}

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

Sintheta = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 45 = \sqrt{3}/x

x = \sqrt{3}/sin45

\begin{gathered} x\text{ =}\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{\sin 45} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{2}}} \\ x\text{ = }\sqrt[]{3^{}}\cdot\sqrt[]{2} \\ x\text{ =}\sqrt[]{6} \end{gathered}

Hence the value of x is \sqrt{6}

Explain how the graph of a quadratic function relates to
igomit [66]
The equation for a quadratic is as follows:
y = ax^2+bx+c

The first variable “a” determines whether the parabola opens up or down
The squared allows the equation to look like the parabola swoop when graphed.
The c term is the constant term
