Algebra Question
Jasmine played outside today. She asked her mother if she could play outside tomorrow. Her mother said she could play outside only if the difference between today’s temperature and tomorrow’s temperature is less than 10 degrees. If today’s temperature was 93, what is the range of temperatures that would allow Jasmine to play outside tomorrow?
Address each of these parts:
a. Define the variable for the situation.
b. Write an absolute value inequality to represent the situation (tolerance).
c. Solve the inequality.
Referring back to the last question, using words, write the interpretation of the solution in terms of the range of temperatures that will allow Jasmine to play outside. Then, graph the solution.
