Since the base is 3 inches and the height is 4 inches, as well as the area of a triangle being base*height/2, we get 3*4/2=6 in. for each triangle. Since we need 20 pieces for each puzzle, we multiply 6 by 20 to get 120. In addition, since 80 puzzles are needed, with 20 pieces for each puzzle, we have 120 inches for each puzzle and 120*80 = 9600 square inches of wood used

Answer:

9600 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a puzzle contains a triangular piece with a base of 3 in. and a height of 4 in.

The would used for each triangular piece would be equal to area of triangle.

\frac{1}{2}\times 3\text{ in}\times 4\text{ in}=3\text{ in}\times 2\text{ in}=6\text{ in}^2

Each puzzle contains 20 triangular pieces, so wood used for each piece of puzzle would be 20 times 6 square inches.

\text{Wood used for each puzzle}=20\times 6\text{ in}^2

\text{Wood used for each puzzle}=120\text{ in}^2

\text{Wood used for 80 puzzles}=80\times 120\text{ in}^2

\text{Wood used for 80 puzzles}=9600\text{ in}^2

Therefore, 9600 square inches of wood is needed to make 80 puzzles.

Which best represents the solution set of all real numbers?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the solution set is all real numbers, our solution graph must cover the entire number line.

We can see that B contains the graph that extends infinitely in both directions,  thereby covering the entire number line.

Therefore, our answer is B.

A is not correct because it leaves out [-6, 1] (approximately).

C is not correct because it leaves out everything to the left of -7 and everything to the right of 1.
