Answer:

4.65\leq x\leq 5.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the actual width of belt be x

we are given that the ideal width of safety belt strap is 5 cm

So, Difference between actual and ideal = (x-5)cm

We are also given that An actual width can vary by at most 0.35 cm.

So, The difference between actual and ideal width should be less than or equal to 0.35 cm

So, |x-5|\leq 0.35

We know

x-5\leq 0.35 and x-5\geq -0.35

x\leq 0.35+5 and x\geq -0.35+5

x\leq 5.35 and x\geq 4.65

So, 4.65\leq x\leq 5.35

Hence the range of acceptable widths is 4.65\leq x\leq 5.35

A single carton of juice costs $4.20. A special offer pack of 3 cartons costs $9.45. Ali bought a special offer pack instead of
fgiga [73]

1 cartons of juice = $4.20

3 single cartons = 4.20 * 3 =  $12.60

1 pack = $9.45

He saved 12.60 - 9.45 = $3.15

So, he saved $3.15, compared to the total ($12.60)

To calculate the percentage, we will do a proportion:

3.15 (money saved) : 12.60 (total of 3 single cartons) = x (how much percentage) : 100 (total)

3.15 : 12.6 = x : 100

To calculate x, we will moltiplicate the ends (where we have known numbers) than divide all per 12.6

So

x = (3.15 * 100) / 12.60 = 315 / 12.6 = 25

So the percentage saving is 25%

Pooja's plant began sprouting 2days before Pooja bought it, and she had it for 98 days until it died. At its tallest, the plant
taurus [48]

Given that function H(t) models the height of Pooja's plant (in centimeters) where t is the number of days after she bought it.

Now we have to find about which number type is more appropriate for the domain of h. That means what values can be taken by the variable "t".

Since t is number of days not the hours so t will not use decimal or fraction values. It can use integer values for the number of days.

Since time is counted after she bought the plant then number of days will be positive.

Hence answer for the type of domain can be positive integers or you can say integers greater than or equal to 0.

Evgen [1.6K]
When the first equation is multiplied by -3, the sum of the two equation and any of the original equations will have the same solution as the original equations. Hence 5x = -10 and 11x - 9x = -13 will have a solution of (-2, -1).
