B. 40.01 years
C. 21.1 years
D. 1000 years

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Distinguish exact and uncertain numbers; Correctly represent uncertainty in quantities using significant figures.

answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

it has a exact amount of years with no decimals

is should be y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

correct me if im wrong

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.
