Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:  Choice C

Equation is |x − 20| = 0.45

The min is x = 19.55

=====================================================

Explanation:

fl oz = fluid ounces

x = volume of the drink in fl oz

The expression |x-20| represents how far x is from the target of 20 fl oz. We use absolute value to ensure the result is never negative. It might help to draw out a number line.

Two examples:

If x = 22 then |x-20| = |22-20| = |2| = 2 which shows that 22 is 2 units away from 20 on the number line.

If x = 17 then |x-20| = |17-20| = |-3| = 3 which shows that 17 is 3 units away from 20 on the number line.

We want this difference to be within 0.45 fl oz, i.e. we want |x-20| to either equal 0.45 or be smaller than it.

If we only cared about the min and max, then we set |x-20| equal to 0.45 to generate the equation |x − 20| = 0.45

----------------

Solve this equation to find the min and max.

|x - 20| = 0.45

x-20 = 0.45 or x-20 = -0.45

x = 0.45+20 or x = -0.45+20

x = 20.45 or x = 19.55

The min is 19.55 fl oz and the max is 20.45 fl oz.

Phrased another way: the x values span from 19.55 to 20.45, inclusive of both endpoints. We could write  as a compact way to describe what values x could be.

<h3>Answer:  Choice C</h3>

Equation is |x − 20| = 0.45

The min is x = 19.55

fl oz = fluid ounces

The expression |x-20| represents how far x is from the target of 20 fl oz. We use absolute value to ensure the result is never negative. It might help to draw out a number line.

Two examples:

  • If x = 22 then |x-20| = |22-20| = |2| = 2 which shows that 22 is 2 units away from 20 on the number line.
  • If x = 17 then |x-20| = |17-20| = |-3| = 3 which shows that 17 is 3 units away from 20 on the number line.

We want this difference to be within 0.45 fl oz, i.e. we want |x-20| to either equal 0.45 or be smaller than it.

x = 20.45 or x = 19.55

The min is 19.55 fl oz and the max is 20.45 fl oz.

Phrased another way: the x values span from 19.55 to 20.45, inclusive of both endpoints. We could write 19.55 \le \text{x} \le 20.45 as a compact way to describe what values x could be.

kondaur [170]

The perimeter of each is the sum of the lengths of its sides.

Triangle Perimeter = 16 + 4x-3 +3x = 7x+13

Square Perimeter = 2x +2x +2x +2x = 8x

If these are equal, you have

7x+13=8x\\\\13=x\qquad \mbox{subtract 7x}\\\\26=2x\qquad \mbox{multiply by 2}

The length of a side of the square is 26 units.

Gina mixed paint to make her favorite shade of purple. She filled up one third of the container with red paint. Then she filled
Masteriza [31]
There is 1000 milliliters in a liter. So we're gonna work with thirds. One third is already filled, so that means two thirds is not . So 4 liters fills up 2/3 which we can infer that 2 liters fills up one third of the area... so there is 6 liters in total. Which means there is a total of 6000 milliliters of paint.
