4. if 104 um = 1 cm, how many um = 1 cm'?
(a) 104
(b) 106
(c) 108
(d) 1012

I would assume the answer is (A) 104.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because in the question, you already stated that 104 um = 1 cm, so naturally when asking the question how many = 1 cm, then I would think the answer is 104.

Hope this helped!

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.
