According to the 2010 census, 11.7% of the people in the state of Oregon were Hispanic or Latino. A political party wants to know how much impact the Hispanic and Latino vote will have, so they wonder if that percentage has changed since then. They take a random sample of 853 adults in Oregon and ask, among other things, their race. 113 of the people surveyed were Hispanic or Latino. Can the political party conclude that the Hispanic proportion of the population has changed since 2010? Test an appropriate hypothesis.

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.

step-by-step explanation:

in geometry, parallel lines are lines in a plane which do not meet; that is, two lines in a plane that do not intersect or touch each other at any point are said to be parallel. by extension, a line and a plane, or two planes, in three-dimensional euclidean space that do not share a point are said to be parallel.
