Answer:

600 words

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to cross multiply. Lets input the values (100, 2.5, 5) as shown below:

\frac{100}{2.5}=\frac{x}{15}

Next we cross multiply. We multiply 2.5 and x, and we multiply 100 and 15.

2.5(x)=2.5x

100(15)=1,500

Now, lets put the values above back into the equation:

2.5x=1,500

Our next step is to divide 1,500 by 2.5 to get <em>x</em> by itself.

x=\frac{1,500}{2.5}

x=600

Sylvia can type 600 words in 15 minutes.

On average, Christopher scores 2 goals in a soccer game but, depending on how well the opposing team is playing, his goal total
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Given:

Christopher scores 2 goals in a soccer game.

His goal total can vary from the average by 1 goal.

To find:

The absolute value equation can be used to calculate Christopher's maximum and minimum goals per game.

Solution:

Let Christopher scores x goals in a soccer game.

Then difference between actual goals and average goals is x-2.

His goal total can vary from the average by 1 goal.

Maximum number of goals = 2+1 = 3

Minimum number of goals = 2-1 = 1

It means, the difference between actual goals and average goals is either -1 and 1.

x-2=-1        ...(1)

x-2=1         ...(2)

Using (1) and (2),we get

|x-2|=1

Therefore, the correct option is C.
