The maximum weight for an elevator is 1600 pounds. you need to move boxes each weighing 40 pounds, and you weigh 145 pounds. write an inequality that can be used to determine the maximum number of boxes that you can place in the elevator at one time. assume only you and the boxes are in the elevator. a.1600 - 145 40n c.145 + 40n 1600 b.145 + 40n 1600 d.1600 + 145 40n

The answer is C, just did that assignment

3rd box is the answer

step-by-step explanation:

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.
