Solve the equation y= x t for x

x = y/t

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, it has to be isolated on one side of the equal sign. To do that, you have to eliminate the t. That can be done by dividing it from both sides. We don't know the exact value for y or t so we must leave it as y/t. x is now isolated on one side of the equal side and it's value is on the other side.

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.
