Jessica has $50 to spend on new clothes. The jacket that she want to buy is $48.20. If the tax rate is 6% does jessica have enough to buy the jacket?

No

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply 48 ×0.06 which is $2.88 in tax so it will bring the total to 51.08

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.
