Your school drama club is putting on a play and hopes to raise $600 from ticket sales. they sell adult tickets for $8 each and student tickets for $5 each. let x represent the number of adult tickets and y represent the number of student tickets. the equation to represent the number of tickets sold to reach their goal, 8x+ 5y = 600, is graphed below. if 40 student tickets are sold, how many adult tickets must be sold to reach their goal?

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.
