Jolie uses 2 tomatoes every day to prepare her salad. if n equals the number of tomatoes jolie had before she made her salad and c equals the number of tomatoes left after the salad is made, which equation represents the number of tomatoes jolie has after she made her salad?

Let

n-------> the number of tomatoes Jolie had before she made her salad

c------> the number of tomatoes left after the salad is made

we know that

Jolie uses tomatoes every day to prepare her salad

therefore

the answer is

The equation that represents the number of tomatoes Jolie has after she made her salad is equal to

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.
