Markus decides to return 4 shirts costing $19 each to a clothing store. While there, he decides to purchase 2 pairs of shoes at $45 each and a raincoat for $62.75. The clerk charges him 5% tax on the amount due after returns. What amount does he owe the clerk?

$80.59

Step-by-step explanation:

You add the price of the raincoat and shoes to get 152.75, you then subtract the price of the 4 shirts you returned to get 76.75. The 5% tax for this is 3.84 so you add the two together and you get $80.59.

24+x=y

step-by-step explanation:

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.
