Well, 5/6 of an hour is 50 minutes. 3/8 of 50 is 6.25. 6.25 times 3 is 18.75.
I believe 18 minutes and 45 seconds.

5/6 of an hour. That is 60 mins in a hour. 1/6 is 10 mins. x 5 = 50 mins.

50 x3 / 8 = 18.75 minutes. 18.75 / 60 = 31.25

31.25 is your final answer.

A pharmacy claims the average medication cost $32 but it could differ as much as $8. Write and solve an absolute value inequalit
ExtremeBDS [4]

So,

We can tell that the most expensive medication costs $40 and the cheapest costs $24.  Thus, only options A and C are left. To see which inequality is true, test a value, such as $30, in the equation in option C.

|30 - 32| ≤ 8

|-2| ≤ 8

2 ≤ 8

            Hope this helps! :)
