Your yearly office supply budget is $1,200. you spend $350 each year on paper. what percent of your budget do you spend on paper? (round off your answer to two places.

350/1200 reduced is 7/24, and 7/24 as a percent is 29.17%.

1/800 is the right answer

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.
