s an absolute value inequality.

The <em>correct answer</em> is:

|w-20| ≤ 0.12.

Explanation:

We first find the average of the two ends of the inequality:

(19.88+20.12)/2 = 40/2 = 20

This will be the number subtracted from w in the inequality.

Now we find the difference between this value and the ends:

20-19.88 = 0.12

20.12 - 20 = 0.12

This will be what our absolute value inequality ends with; the "answer" part, so to speak.

Since this inequality is written in compact form, it must be an "and" inequality; this means the absolute value inequality must be a "less than or equal to."

This gives us

|w-20| ≤ 0.12

If the areas of the given pairs of shapes are equal, find the value of x.​
den301095 [7]

Answer:

x = 8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a square and rectangle.we want to figure out x which is the width of the rectangle. we are also given a condition i.e

  • the area of the square equal to the area of the rectangle

therefore,

\displaystyle \rm A _{square } = A _{rect}

recall the formula of the area of square and rectangle so,

\displaystyle  {s}^{2} = lw

now assign variables

  • s \implies16cm
  • l \implies32cm
  • w \implies x

thus substitute:

\displaystyle 32cmx =  {16cm}^{2}

simplify square:

\displaystyle 32cmx = 256cm^2

divide both sides by 32:

\displaystyle  \boxed{x = 8cm}

and we're done!
