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.

  • Here, both the triangles have equal sides.
  • So, the two triangles are related by SSS.
  • If all the sides of a triangle are equal to all the sides of another triangle, so the triangles are congruent to each other.

<u>SSS,</u><u> </u><u>congruent.</u>

Hope you could get an idea from here.

This problem is asking you to apply the *Pythagorean Theorem*, given the information you’ve been given.

In case you’ve forgotten, the Pythagorean Theorem states that, in any given right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of its legs is equal to the square of the length of its hypotenuse (the side opposite its right angle). If we call the lengths of the legs a and b, and the length of the hypotenuse c, this can be expressed in notation as a^2+b^2=c^2 (it doesn’t matter in this case which leg you pick for a and which you pick for b). Here, if we choose the left leg as a and the bottom leg as b, we’re given that a^2 (the area of a square with sides of length a) is 25 sq. in, and b is 3.5 in. Plugging those values into the equation, we have:

25 + (3.5)^2 = c^2

From here, you don’t even need to solve for c, you just need to find the value of c^2 (since you’re trying to find the area of a square with side lengths c). Just solve the left side of the equation, and you’ll have your answer in square inches.

The units are always squared.

The area can be found when given the diameter by first finding the radius.

Circumference can be used to find area.
