Question

A company’s guidelines call for each can of soup produced not to vary from its stated volume of 14.5 fluid ounces by more than 0.08 ounces. Write and solve an absolute value inequality to describe acceptable can volumes

Answer 1

The acceptable can volume is $14.42\leq V\leq 14.58$.

Each can of soup produced not to vary from its stated volume of $14.5$ fluid ounces by more than $0.08$ ounces,

So, let V represent volume

$|V-14.5|<=0.08$

So, $V-14.5\leq 0.08$ and $V-14.5\geq -0.08$

$V\leq 14.58$ and $V\geq 14.42$

So, $14.42\leq V\leq 14.58$
