A function y = g(x) is graphed below. What is the solution to the equation g(x) = 3?

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we can see that g(x)=3 is true only when x is between 3 and 5. However, note that when x=3, the point is a closed circle. When x=5, the point is an open circle. Therefore, the solution is between 3 and 5, and it includes 3 but not 5.

In set-builder notation, this is:

In interval notation, this is:

Essentially, these answers are saying: The solution set for g(x)=3 is all numbers between 3 and 5 including 3 and not including 5.

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.

step-by-step explanation:

94

step-by-step explanation:

average the numbers and use a variable to figure out the minimum to get a 90.

(79+94+91+92+x)/5=90

x = 94
