1 Crista works for a company that cuts down diseased palm trees before they fall and cause
damage. She must determine the height of the palm tree.
5 ft
6 ft
27 ft
Crista is 5 feet tall and has measured her shadow to be 6 feet long. At the same time, she
measured the tree's shadow to be 27 feet long. What is the height (h) of the palm tree?

its 27

Step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is 45x

9×5=45 then add the x

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.
