Daria bought two same-store posterboard. she cut the posterboards into equal-sized pieces to make placemats for her dinner guests. she cut the first posterboard into 5 pieces and the second posterboard into 2 pieces. she will continue to cut the pieces of posterboard so that each one is divided into the same number of equal-sized pieces. what is the least number of equal-sized pieces each posterboard could have?

u rich

step-by-step explanation:

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.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

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.
