Given the domain {-4, 0, 5}, what is the range for the relation 12x + 6y = 24? A.
{-4, 4, 14}
B.
{2, 4, 9}
C.
{-12, -4, 6}
D.
{12, 4, -6}

The range is {12, 4, -6} ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of the relation is the values of y corresponding to the values given for x which is the domain of the relation

∵ The relation is 12x + 6y = 24

∵ The domain of the function is {-4, 0, 5}

→ That means x = -4, 0, 5, we need to find their corresponding values of y

∴ Substitute the values of x in the relation

∵ x = -4

∴ 12(-4) + 6y = 24

∴ -48 + 6y = 24

→ Add 48 to both sides

∴ -48 + 48 + 6y = 24 + 48

∴ 6y = 72

→ Divide both sides by 6 to find y

∴

∴ y = 12

∵ x = 0

∴ 12(0) + 6y = 24

∴ 0 + 6y = 24

∴ 6y = 24

→ Divide both sides by 6 to find y

∴

∴ y = 4

∵ x = 5

∴ 12(5) + 6y = 24

∴ 60 + 6y = 24

→ Subtract 60 from both sides

∴ 60 - 60 + 6y = 24 - 60

∴ 6y = -36

→ Divide both sides by 6 to find y

∴

∴ y = -6

∵ The range is the values of y which corresponding to the domain

∴ The range is {12, 4, -6}

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.
