x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

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.
