Question

For nitrogen to be a liquid, its temperature must be within 12.78 °F of –333.22 °F. Which equation can be used to find the maximum and minimum temperatures at which nitrogen is a liquid, x?

The equation that can be used to find the maximum and minimum temperatures is

|x +
| =
.

Answer 1

sorry meant to get to this earlier

" within 12.78 °F of –333.22 "

means that the difference between x and -333.22 must be 12.78 or less

as an absolute value equation it is

|x - (-333.22)| ≤ 12.78
