Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, arrange this word problem as an equation. Using N as the unknown number, we see:

(N/-5) + (-2) = -4

Next, we add -2 to both sides of the equation:

(N/-5) = -2

Now multiply both sides by -5:

N=10

Hope that helps!

The ideal temperature of a freezer to store a particular brand of ice cream is 0°F, with a fluctuation of no more than 2°F. Whic

yan [13]

Answer:

| x - 0 | ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The ideal temperature of the freezer = 0° F,

Also, it can fluctuate by 2° F,

Thus, if x represents the temperature of the freezer,

Then, there can be two cases,

Case 1 : x > 0,

⇒ x - 0 ≤ 2

Case 2 : If x < 0,

⇒ 0 - x ≤ 2,

⇒ -( x - 0 ) ≤ 2,

By combining the inequalities,

We get,

| x - 0 | ≤ 2,

Which is the required inequality.
