A plant produces sport drinks, which must be within 0.15 fluid ounces of the advertised 10 fluid ounces on the label. If x repre
sents the volume, write an equation to model the maximum and minimum volumes and determine the minimum volume in a bottle. A. |x + 0.15| = 10; x = 10.15 ounces
B. |x − 0.15| = 10; x = 9.85 ounces
C. |x + 10| = 0.15; x = 10.15 ounces
D. |x − 10| = 0.15; x = 9.85 ounces
The answer is C, the first number in the equation is going to be multiplied separately by the ones inside the parentheses, which is that number distributing.
