I have attached a screenshot with the images of the two popcorn bags used by the theater.
Part (a):
Bag A:
Volume of bag = area of base * height
Volume of bag = length * width * height
We have:
volume = 96 in³
length = 3 in
width = 4 in
Therefore:
96 = 3 * 4 * height
96 = 12 * height
height of bag A = 8 in
Bag B:
Volume of bag = area of base * height
Volume of bag = length * width * height
We have:
volume = 96 in³
length = 4 in
width = 4 in
Therefore:
96 = 4 * 4 * height
96 = 16 * height
height of bag B = 6 in
Part (b):
To determine the amount of paper needed, we will need to calculate the surface of each bag. Excluding the top base, each bag will have 5 faces. Four side faces (each two opposite are equal) and the base.
Bag A:
Surface area = area of base + 2*area of front face + 2*area of side face
Surface area = (3*4) + 2(8*4) + 2(8*3)
Surface area = 12 + 64 + 48
Surface area of bag A = 124 in²
Bag B:
Surface area = area of base + 2*area of front face + 2*area of side face
Surface area = (4*4) + 2(6*4) + 2(6*4)
Surface area = 16 + 48 + 48
Surface area of bag B = 112 in²
From the above calculations, we can deduce that the theater should choose bag B in order to reduce the amount of paper needed.
Hope this helps :)

Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Make sure that the trinomial is written in the correct order - the trinomial must be written in descending order from highest power to lowest power. In you case, the trinomial must be written as
2. Decide if the three terms have anything in common, called the greatest common factor or GCF. If so, factor out the GCF. Do not forget to include the GCF as part of your final answer.
In your case, coefficients 2, 5 and 3 do not have common factors, so go to the next step.
3. Multiply the leading coefficient and the constant, that is multiply the first and last numbers together:
4. List all of the factors from step 3 and decide which combination of numbers will combine to get the number next to x:
5. After choosing the correct pair of numbers, you must give each number a sign so that when they are combined they will equal the number next to x and also multiply to equal the number found in Step 3:
6. Rewrite the original problem with four terms by splitting the middle term into the two numbers chosen in step 5:
7. Now that the problem is written with four terms, you can factor by grouping:
