makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

$|T- 98.6| \geq 3$

And in order to solve this we have two possibilities:

Solution 1

$T -98.6 \leq -3$

And solving for T we got:

$T \leq 98.6- 3$

$T\leq 95.6$

Solution 2

And the other options would be:

$T -98.6 \geq 3$

$T \geq 101.6$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can define the variable os interest T as the real temperature and we know that if we are 3 F more than the value of 98.6 we will be unhealthy so we can set up the following equation:

$|T- 98.6| \geq 3$

And in order to solve this we have two possibilities:

Solution 1

$T -98.6 \leq -3$

And solving for T we got:

$T \leq 98.6- 3$

$T\leq 95.6$

Solution 2

And the other options would be:

$T -98.6 \geq 3$

$T \geq 101.6$
