On average, Ryan can finish a puzzle in 3 hours but, depending on the difficulty of the puzzle, his time can vary from the average by 2 hours.Which absolute value equation can be used to calculate Ryan's maximum and minimum time to complete a puzzle?Let x represent the maximum and minimum time|xβ3|=2|x+2|=3|x+3|=2|xβ2|=3
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:|x β 3| = 2Step-by-step explanation:The difference between his maximum time and his average time is +2 hours.x β 3 = 2The difference between his minimum time and his average time is -2 hours.x β 3 = -2Using absolute values:|x β 3| = 2
