Amason will lay rows of bricks to build a wall. the mason will spread - inch of mortar on top of all but the
last row of bricks. the finished wall will be 13 inches less than 4 feet high. answer parts a and b below.
a. the mason wants to lay the bricks so that the shortest edge of each brick is vertical. how many rows of bricks are needed? show your work.
times
let b equal the number of rows of bricks. the total height of the bricks in inches is equal to times the total height of the mortar is equal to
their sum is equal to the height of the wall or inches. if i write this as an equation and solve for b, then the result is rows of bricks.
(simplify your answers.)

what does muffins have to do with anything?

step-by-step explanation:

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.
