A whole number k is greater than 3. Which of the following is true about k/3?

D) It is greater than 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since k is greater than 3, it could not be between 0 and 1/3 and also could not be between 1/3 and 1

We also know that it is not equal to 1 because it is greater than 3.

Therefore, it is greater than 1.

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.
