Comparing Ratios: What is the relationship between the number of stitches and the length?

The last choice is cut off. It says: The number of stitches is 5 times the length.

the number of stiches is 5 times the length

Explanation:

1cm length × 5 = 5 stiches

3cm length ×5 = 15 stiches

4cm length ×5 = 20 stiches

6cm length ×5 = 30 stiches

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.
