The distance: use absolute value
Between x and 8: x-8
The distance between x and 8: | x-8 |
“is no more than” means it can be that or be less than that, so use ≤
The distance between x and 8 is no more than 4
| x-8 | ≤ 4

Answer: The black line is longer than the white line.
It most common to round to the hundredths place, this is two spaces after the decimal.
So look two spaces right - 0.17. If the third digit (in this case 6) is higher than 5 you round the number up if its not, keep it the same.
"6" is greater than five, so round it to about (or approximately) 0.18.
M < 2 and m < 6 are corresponding angles and are equal....so < 6 = 132.
< 6 and < 8 form a line and are equal to 180
< 6 + < 8 = 180
132 + < 8 = 180
< 8 = 180 - 132
< 8 = 48 <===
