The absolute value equation which could be used to obtain the greatest and least possible temperature values when the temperature reading is 17°F is (17 ± 2)°F

Thermometer accuracy = ±2°F
Thermometer reading = 17°F

The least possible value of temperature can be calculated thus :

Thermometer reading - thermometer accuracy

17 - 2 = 15°F

The highest possible temperature can be calculated thus :

Themometer reading - thermometer accuracy

17 + 2 = 19°F

Hence, the absolute value equation which represents the scenario is (17 ± 2)°F

For every $50.00, Michael earns, he saves $5.. for the future. what is the constant of proportionality (k)?

tankabanditka [31]

Constant of proportionality is given by: y=kx oy $k=\frac{y}{x}$

So lets suppose y = 50 and x = 5 so k will be $\frac{50}{5}=10$

This 10 will remain constant. For every $50 Michael saves $5, for $100 he will save $10 , for $150 he will save $15 and so on.

So this 'k' will be same for each value of x and y.
