Thomas needs at least 8 apples to make an apple pie. he has 3 apples. if x represents the number of apples thomas still needs, which inequality can be used to represent the situation? mc012-1.jpg mc012-2.jpg mc012-3.jpg mc012-4.jpg

Your answer would be D, x + 3 ≥ 8. The keyword "at least" hints that it has to be a greater than or equal to symbol.

+25 = x

step-by-step explanation:

here x is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are 7 and 24.   by the pythagorean theorem, 7² + 24² must equal x²:

x² = 49 + 576 = 625.   thus, x = +√625 = +25 = x

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
