$1.39 per fluid ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must determine how many fluid ounces there are:

We know that 1 cup is 8 fluid ounces.

There are 2 cups of gel in this bottle.

Therefore, 2 cups * 8 ounces = 16 ounces of gel.

Now that we know how many ounces there are, we can determine the price per ounce:

Price per ounce =

=

=$1.39 per fluid ounce

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.
