Last year ariq made 6 1-cup servings of soup for a party this year you will make 8 times the amount of soup that he made last year how many gallons of soup will he make this year?

  3 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

He will make 8×(6 cups) = 48 cups of soup. There are 16 cups in a gallon, so 3·16 = 48 cups in 3 gallons.

Ariq will make 3 gallons of soup this year.

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.
