Absolute value was $55. I don't really get the problem...
J = 14
J = 1/2S + 4 1/2
14 = 1/2S + 9/2....multiply everything by 2 to get rid of fractions
28 = S + 9
28 - 9 = S
19 = S
check...
14 = 1/2S + 9/2......S = 19
14 = 1/2(19) + 9/2
14 = 9 1/2 + 9/2
14 = 19/2+ 9/2
14 = 28/2
14 = 14 (correct)
so the sister is 19 <===
1 foot = 12 inches.
5 ft x 12 inches per foot = 60 inches.
60 inches + 10 inches = 70 inches.
Sara was 70 inches tall.
Now convert to centimeters:
70 inches x 2.54 centimeters per inch = 177.8 cm's.
Round to nearest centimeter = 178 cm's.

Answer: (c * d)(x) =
4x^3 + 18x^2 - 10x</h3>
Work Shown:
I'm assuming the dot means multiplication. If so, then,
(c * d)(x) = c(x)*d(x)
(c * d)(x) = [ c(x) ] * [ d(x) ]
(c * d)(x) = (4x-2)(x^2+5x) .... substitution
(c * d)(x) = 4x(x^2+5x) - 2(x^2+5x) ... distribute
(c * d)(x) = 4x(x^2)+4x(5x) - 2(x^2)-2(5x) ... distribute again
(c * d)(x) = 4x^3 + 20x^2 - 2x^2 - 10x
(c * d)(x) = 4x^3 + 18x^2 - 10x
d - 2 < -1 is how this inequality would be displayed.
However, we can solve for the value of d by treating this like a standard algebraic equation.
d - 2 < -1
<em><u>Add 2 to both sides.</u></em>
d < 1
The value of d is less than 1.
