Caleb and sergio stacked boxes on a shelf. caleb lifted 14 boxes and sergio lifted 12 boxes. the boxes that sergio lifted each weighed 10 lb more than the boxes caleb lifted. let c represent the weight of each box caleb lifted. which expression represents the total number of pounds sergio lifted? a. 10(c−12) b. 120c c. c + 10 d. 12(c+10) (explain your answer)

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.
