Step 1 of 4

a. The electric oven will function normally if the voltage varies from 220 volts by 10 volts

Thus if the voltage of an oven is x then it will function normally if the difference between its voltage x and 220 volts is less than or equal to 10. The difference can be positive or negative

Therefore write the absolute value inequality as:

    <div class=answer> a. The electric oven will function normally if the voltage varies from 220 volts by 10 volts Thus if the voltage of an oven is <i>x</i> then it will function normally if the difference between its voltage <i>x</i> and 220 volts is less than or equal to 10. The difference can be positive or negative Therefore write the absolute value inequality as:   Therefore write the absolute value inequality that gives the voltage <i>x</i> for which the oven will work normally

Therefore write the absolute value inequality that gives the voltage x for which the oven will work normally
