Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember how absolute values turn everything inside of it into a positive number? Like |-4|=4 and |4|=4 as well.
Well, it works the same for equations.
When you have an absolute value equation like this, you have to split it into two parts.
The positive version
| d-3.5 | ≤ 1.5
and the negative version
|-(d-3.5)| ≤ 1.5
solve for the value of d in both equation.
<em>Remember that you have to flip the inequality sign when dividing or multiplying by a negative number</em>
I assume you know how to graph the inequality once you get the value for d.
d≤5 and d≥2
so
2 ≤ d ≤ 5
meaning d is between 2 and 5.
