Answer:

8 pounds(lbs)

Step-by-step explanation:

If a candy costs $7 per pound, $56 divided by $7 will equal 8 pounds.

Answer:

8 ≤ x pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

I will be using * as a symbol for multiplication.

We can create an inequality for this question.

x will represent the amount of pounds that he may buy.

56 ≤ 7 * x

(This means that 56 is less than or equal to 7 times x.)

We create this inequality because of how Joe will spend AT LEAST $56 dollars on candy. The amount of candy is not defined in the question.

Let's solve.

56 ≤ 7 * x

Divide by 7.

8 ≤ x

Joe will buy at least 8 pounds of candy,

Note the word at least. This states that he may buy more, however 8 is the minimal amount he will obtain.

Please inform me of any mistakes.

Find the height of the triangle by applying formulas for the area of a triangle and
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a= 12 mm ; b = 16 mm  ; c = 18 mm

s = (a + b+c)/2

=\dfrac{12 + 16 + 8}{2}\\\\= \dfrac{36}{2}\\\\= 18\\\\

s -a =  18 -  12 = 6 mm

s  -b = 18 - 16 = 2 mm

s  -c = 18 - 8 = 10 mm

area = \sqrt{s(s -a)(s-b)(s-c)}

       = \sqrt{18*6*2*10}\\\\= \sqrt{2160 }\\\\=46.47\\\\=46 \ mm^{2}\\

\dfrac{1}{2}* \ base * \ height = 46\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}*16* \ height = 46\\\\height = \dfrac{46*2}{16}\\\\

  = 5.75

Height = 5.8 mm
