A pharmacy claims that the average medication costs $32 but it could differ as much as $8. Write and solve an absolute value ine

quality to determine the range of medication costs at this pharmacy.
A) |x − 32| ≥ 8; The medication costs range from $24 to $40
B)|x − 32| ≥ 8; The medications cost less than $24 or greater than $40.
C) |x − 32| ≤ 8; The medication costs range from $24 to $40
D) |x − 32| ≤8; The medications cost less than $24 or greater than $40.

Answer:

Therefore, Option C is correct that is |x-32|\leq8|{\text{the medication costs range from $24to $40}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given medication cost $32

Since, we have given as much as 8 so the inequality will maximum goes upto 8.

|x-32|\leq8

Now, we will solve the inequality for x we will get

We will first open the modulus function by its definition we will get

which is |x| is +x  and -x

(x-32)\leq8

x=32+8=40

x=40

And -(x-32)\leq8

-x+32=8

x=24

Therefore, Option C is correct

So,

We can tell that the most expensive medication costs $40 and the cheapest costs $24.  Thus, only options A and C are left.

To see which inequality is true, test a value, such as $30, in the equation in option C.

|30 - 32| ≤ 8
|-2| ≤ 8
2 ≤ 8

Option C is correct.

Y=-3x+3<br> Y=5x+19<br> Solve this system by substitution
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

You can substitute the first equation into the second:

-3x+3=5x+19

Add 3x on both sides:

3=8x+19

Subtract 19 on both sides:

-16=8x

Divide 8 on both sides:

x=-2

Solve the following proportion for the unknown variable: 15/d = 24/40
Pavel [41]
<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
d = 25

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
To get the value of d, we will need to isolate the d on one side of the equation.

<u>This can be done as follows:</u>
</span>\frac{15}{d} =  \frac{24}{40}<span>

<u>First, we will do cross multiplication as follows:</u>
40*15 = 24*d
600 = 24d

<u>Then, we will isolate the d as follows:</u>
24d = 600
</span>\frac{24d}{24} =  \frac{600}{24}
<span>
d = 25

Hope this helps :)</span>
