Part A: 
 First we define the variable to be used for the problem:
 x: the number of pages that Sandra should fax
 The inequality for rent is:
 0.06x <= 80
 Note that the price will be less than using the fax from the office, since for the same number of pages, we have:
 y = 0.10x
 Answer:
 
an inequality that can be used to calculate the number of pages that Sandra should fax in a year is:
 
0.06x <= 80

 Part B:
 0.06x <= 80
 From here we clear x:
 x <= 80 / 0.06
 x <= 1333.33333
 Nearest whole number
 x <= 1333
 Sandra can use the leased fax for 1333 pages and the cost will be:
 1333 * 0.06 = 79.98 $
 Using the office fax the cost will be:
 1333 * 0.1 = 133.3 $
  Answer:
 
By renting the sara machine, you save:
 
133.3-79.98 = 53.32 $

About how tall is a two-story building? 6 inches 20 feet 25 inches 6 feet
lara [203]

The most likely measurement for a two-story building would be 20 feet. 6 inches, 25 inches, and 6 feet all are way too short for a two-story building.
