Use the data to complete the line plot then answer the question a clerk in a health food store makes bags of trail mix the amount of trail mix in each bag is listed below

The average amount of trail mix in each bag is lb

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the sum of all the trail mix

Sum of Trail Mix = lb +

Now count the numbers of trail mixes

Numbers of trail mixes = 12

Calculate the average amount of the trail mix using the following formula

Average Trail mix = Sum of Trail Mix / Numbers of trail mixes

Average Trail mix = 6 lb / 12

Average Trail mix = lb

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.
