A furniture maker uses the specification 19.88 ≤ w ≤ 20.12 for the width w in inches of a desk drawer. Write the specification a

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

the number of grams a woman should eat in a day to maintain her weight is proportional to her weight. a woman weighing 102 pound
vitfil [10]
Given:
grams of fat : 34 grams TO weight of woman : 102 pounds
grams of fat : ? TO weight of woman : 180 pounds

This is a proportion problem: 34 grams to 102 pounds.

We first have to convert a unit of measure to another to maintain uniformity of measure. let us convert pounds to grams:

102 pounds * 453.592 grams / pound = 46,266.384 grams
180 pounds * 453.592 grams / pound = 81,646.560 grams

34 grams to 46,266.384 grams = x grams to 81,646.560 grams

proportion: a:b = c:d where ad = bc

34 grams * 81,646.560 grams = x * 46,266.384 grams
2,775,983.04 grams² = x * 46,266.384 grams
2,775,983.04 grams² ÷ 46,266.384 grams = x
60 grams = x 

A woman weighing 180 pounds should eat 60 grams of fat to maintain her weight.

What’s the solution of y= 3x-1 and y= 3x+4
julia-pushkina [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

solution ? you mean where both lines cross each other ?

these are 2 parallel lines (same slope, but different y-intercept), so they never cross each other.

there is no solution.

formally :

3x - 1 = 3x + 4

-1 = 4

this is wrong. therefore there is no solution.
