Answer: B. |x-100| = 25
Explanation:
Draw out a number line. Mark 75, 100 and 125 on the number line as points A, B, and C in that order. Don't worry about the spacing.
The value of x represents where the train is. So if we had say x = 85, then it would be at location 85 on the number line. Writing |x-100| is the distance from x to 100. The absolute value ensures the distance is never negative. We want this distance to be 25 because after traveling 25 cm, the switch is turned, and the train goes the other way.
From my thinking don’t use this one because I’m not really answering 5-2=3=3
<span>200 < 225 + 80x < 550
The 200 is the amount the Jenna currently have.
225 + 80x is the amount that Jenna has to pay given x number of hours.
550 is the sum of Jenna's 200 and additional 350 she can get by selling pre-ordered Cds. This is the maximum amount she can pay for the studio rental and sound technicians.
225 + 80x < 550
80x < 550 -225
80x < 325
80x / 80 < 325/80
x < 4.06 or 4 hours
225 + 80x </span>→ 225 + 80(4) = 225 + 320 = 545
<span>
The number of hours for the sound technician will range from 1 hour to 4 hours.
Assuming they will use 6 hours.
225 + 80(6) = 225 + 480 = 705
705 - 550 = 155
Jenna has to raise an additional $155 to pay off the studio rent and 6 hours of sound technicians.

52+23=75
10+78=88
88+75=163
that's one way
