Two thirds of the employees at an office stated that they preferred soft cookies over crispy cookies. More than 36 employees stated their preference. Ren was asked to write, solve, and graph an inequality to find the number of employees working at the office. His work is shown below. Step
Ren’s work

Step 1

Two-thirds x less-than 36

Step 2

x less-than 54

Step 3
A number line going from 51 to 57. An open circle is at 54. Everything to the left of the circle is shaded.

Where, if any, did Ren first make a mistake in his work?
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
No mistake found

step-by-step explanation:

milk=16 large

soda=280 kids

juice box=82 regular

63 soda +63 regular

124 large total

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.

in geometry, parallel lines are lines in a plane which do not meet; that is, two lines in a plane that do not intersect or touch each other at any point are said to be parallel. by extension, a line and a plane, or two planes, in three-dimensional euclidean space that do not share a point are said to be parallel.

this is a good question! i’ll do some research and what i find, i’ll contact you asap when i have something! ✊
