Abby used 3 3/4 of drink mix to make 10 cups of drinks. question 1: how much drink mix would she need to use to make 1 cup of drink question 2: she only has 11/4 scoops of drink mix remaining. how many cups of drinks can she make?

1) 3 x 4 = 12 + 3 = 15/10= 1.5

1.5/4 = 3/8 drink mix for one drink

2) 22/8

22/3=7.3

so 7 cups of drinks

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
