A publisher claims that the average salary paid at its company is $37,500 but it could differ as much as $4,500. Write and solve an absolute value inequality to determine the range of salaries at this company.

|x − 37500| ≤ 4500; The salaries range from $33,000 to $42,000
|x − 37,500| ≤ 4500; The salaries are less than $33,000 or greater than $42,000.
|x − 37500| ≥ 4500; The salaries range from $33,000 to $42,000
|x − 37,500| ≥ 4500; The salaries are less than $33,000 or greater than $42,000.
