Answer:

|x - y| > 24

Explanation:

The difference btwn 2 villages is over 24km Write this as an algebraic statement

To solve :

Let us represent the two villages with an alphabet :

Let:

Village 1 = x

Village 2 = y

The difference between the two villages : |Village 1 - Village |, that is x - y

The difference is more than 24 km, that is > 24

Hence,

Algebraically,

|x - y| > 24
