The length of a cell phone is 1.6 inches and the width is 3.2 inches. The company making the cell phone wants to make a new version whose length will be 0.96 inches. Assuming the side lengths in the new phone are proportional to the old phone, what will be the width of the new phone?

5.76

Step-by-step explanation:

i just added them  

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.
