max estimates 718 - 331 by rounding each number to the nearest 100. what is
max's estimate of the difference?

Max's estimate of the difference is 400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Max estimates 718 - 331 by rounding each number to the nearest 100.

To find :  What is  Max's estimate of the difference?

Solution :

Rounding each number to the nearest 100 means

1) If the tens place value is greater than or equal to 5 then the hundred place round by 1.

2) If the tens place value is less than 5 then the hundred place remain same.

Now, Estimate 718 by rounding number to nearest 100 is 700.

Estimate 331 by rounding number to nearest 100 is 300.

The difference of their estimation is 700-300=400.

Therefore, Max's estimate of the difference is 400.

the one that has a slope of 1/2 and is positive.

step-by-step explanation: 2 buckets 1 trip ; 4 buckets 2 trips and so on.

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.
