Answer:

The inequality tha can be used to find how many more bags of popcorn Jeff still needs to sell today to make a profit is

x - 12 ≥ 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent the number of bags of popcorn as p

Jeff sells popcorn for $3 per bag. To make a profit each day, he needs to sell at least $120 worth of popcorn.

We have the equation:

$3 × p ≥ $120

3p ≥ $120

p ≥ 120/3

p ≥ 40 bags

He must sell at least 40 bags to make a profit

He has sold $36 worth of popcorn today.

1 bag is $3

Hence, he has sold

$36/$3 = 12 bags of popcorn

Which inequality can be used to find Jeff still needs to sell today to make a profit?

This equality is given as:

x - 12 bags ≥ 40 bags

x - 12 ≥ 40

x ≥40 - 12

x ≥ 28 bags

She still need to sell 28 more bags of popcorn.

The sum of 6 consecutive integers is 270. What is the second number in the sequence?
Rina8888 [55]
N+(n+1)+(n+2)+(n+3)+(n+4)+(n+5)=270
We use these terms to represent the first six consecutive integers in the sequence
Now we group like terms:
6n+15=270
Minus 15 from both sides of the equation
6n=255
n=42.5 which is not an integer
Is this a joke question?
Besides that, the 2nd number will be 43.5

Define each following sets by listing its elements, the set of letters in the word "salt"
leonid [27]

The word can be represented as a set and in the roaster form the set of letters is {s, a, l, t}

<h3>What is set?</h3>

A set is a collection of clearly - defined unique items. The term "well-defined" applies to a property that makes it simple to establish whether an entity actually belongs to a set. The term 'unique' denotes that all the objects in a set must be different.

We have given letter:

"salt"

Here, no letter is repeated.

So we can write it as roaster form:

Let's denote the set as S

S = {s, a, l, t}

Number of element in the set = 4

We can make new set from it if the set has only vowels

S(v) = {a}

If set has only consonants:

S(c) = {a, l, t}

Thus, the word can be represented as a set and in the roaster form the set of letters is {s, a, l, t}

A food company distributes its tomato soup in two cans of different sizes. For the larger can, the diameter has been increased b
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

buenas tardes .....

solucion

Volumen de un cilindro: es igual al área de la tapa por la altura del mismo

A = πD² * h / 4

Lata grande y lata pequeña

Para la lata grande, el diámetro y la altura han aumentado un 20%.

Lata pequeña:

d = 4 cm

h = 3 cm

A 1 = π * (4) ² * 3/4

A1 = 37,70 cm²

Lata grande:

d = 4 * 1,2 = 4,8 cm

h = 3 * 1,2 = 3,6 cm

A2 = π (4,8) ²3,6 / 4

A2 = 65,14 cm²

Si 37,7 representa el 100%

  65,14 representación x

x = 170%

El incremento del volumen es de un 70%
