Solve the problem.A landscaping company sells 40-pound bags of top soil. The actual weight x of a bag, however, may differ from the advertised weight by as much as 0.75 pound. Write an inequality involving absolute value that expresses the relationship between the actual weight x of a bag and 40 pounds. Over what range may the weight of a 40-pound bag of to soil vary?
What will be an ideal response?
|x - 40| ? 0.75; 39.25 ? x ? 40.75
