Using the given linear function, the formula underestimates the median weekly earnings in 2013 by $3.
<h3>What is the linear function for the estimate?</h3>
The function that estimates the median weekly earnings n years after 1980 is given by:
W = 13n + 231.
2013 is 2013-1980 = 33 years after 2000, hence the estimate is given by:
W = 13 x 33 + 231 = 660.
Since 657 < 660, the formula underestimates the median weekly earnings in 2013 by $3.

Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
15×12=180
180÷24(crayons per box)=7.5 boxes
Using the two given solutions and the general absolute value function we will get:
|x + 9| = 27
<h3>
Which absolute value function has that solution set?</h3>
The two solutions are:
x = 0 and x = -18.
Remember that the absolute value equation is something like:
|x - a| = b
If we want to have these solutions, then:
|0 - a| = b
|-18 -a| = b
From the first one, we have:
|-a| = b
Replacing that on the second equation we get:
|-18 -a| = |-a|
Notice that if we take a = -9, then we have:
|-18 + 9| = |+9|
|-9| = |+9|
This is true, so a = -9.
Then we find the value of b:
|18 + 9| = b = 27
Then the absolute value equation is:
|x + 9| = 27
