A school is painting its logo in the shape of a triangle in the middle of its sports field. The school wants the height of the triangle to be 8 feet. The area of the logo must be at least 36 square feet. (The logo has to be seen from all the seats.) Write an inequality that describes the possible base lengths (in feet) of the triangle. Use b for the base length of the triangular logo.

SOMEONE PLS HELP ME! THANK YOU!

In other words, the base must be at least 9 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

The schools wants the height of the triangle to be eight feet, and the area of the logo to be at least 36 square feet.

Recall that the area of a triangle is given by:

Since we want to area to be at least 36 square feet:

We are given that the height is eight feet. Substitute:

Simplify:

Divide both sides by four. Hence, our inequality is:

In words, this means that the base must be at least 9 feet long.

(0,-3) see attached graph

step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve the system, graph the two equations.

x = y+3 becomes y=x-3 has m=1/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move up 1 unit and 1 unit to the right. plot a point and connect.

y=-4x+3 has m =-4/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move down four units and to the right 1 unit. plot a point and connect.

the solution is the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. by the graph below it is (0,-3).

b. to solve by substitution, substitute y = -4x-3 into x= y+3

x= (-4x-3) +3

x=-4x

5x=0

x=0

now substitute x = 0 back in to find y.

y= -4(0)-3

y=0-3

y=-3

solution is (0,-3)

c. use elimination by adding the equations together.

x-y=3

4x+y=-3

5x=0

x=0

then substitute into one equation to find y.

y=-4(0)-3

y=-3
