5. TEKS 6.4B Zion runs 5 miles in 40 minutes. If he continues at the same rate, can
he run 15 miles in 140 minutes?
Which statement is true?
A.
No, because if he runs 15 miles, it will take him 120 minutes
B.
Yes, because if he runs 15 miles, it will take him 140 minutes
C.
No, because if he runs 15 miles, it will take him 12 minutes
D.
Yes, because if he runs 5 miles, it will take him 140 minutes

can you give me more detail on this! ?

step-by-step explanation:

tangent

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.
