So what we gotta do is isolate the variable by

writing it out like this

4 1/4 25 those are the numbers where those go are like this

4x - 1/4 < 25 then move on to the next line on here we write out

4x + 1/4 - 1/4 < 25 + 1/4 (The reason why i put + 1/4 is because you have to isolate the variable by doing addition as well And i always find it easier to convert the fractions to decimals then after you make that line you make the next one like this you have to add 1/4 to 4x then take it away (which is 4x) then put that to the side like this 4x ? ? then we need to find those two ?s by adding 25 and 1/4 (or o.25) which is 25.25 then we need to add that to the second answer 4x ? 25.25 when you have this you need to find out which one is bigger so it is 4x<25.25 (or 25 1/4) then we need to divide 4 and 25.25 to get 6.25 so

the answer is  x < 6.25 so c is your awnser

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1

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.
