You are saving for a bike and can save $10 per week. You have $25 when you begin saving. Write an explicit equation to represent the amount of money you have saved at any given week.

Amountofmoneysaved  25 35 45 55 65 75 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:  On week 1 you have the $25 you already saved plus the $10 for that week, so $35.  

For every week after that add $10 to the money saved for the additional $10 saved that week.

On the 8th week the total amount of money saved is 95+10, or $105.

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.
