A 38 oz jug of orange juice may not contain exactly 38 oz of juice. the possibility of measurement error exists when The jug is filled in the factory. if the maximum measurement error is -+ 0.03 oz write an absolute value inequality representing the range of volumes, x, in which the orange juice jug may be filled.The absolute value inequality is

Answer:
|x\text \leq\text{ 0.03}

Explanations:

The volume of the jug = 38 fluid oz

Maximum error = ±0.03

This means that the volume of juice that can be contained by the jug will range between (38-0.03) and (38+0.03)

The absolute value inequality representing the range of volumes, x, in which the orange juice may be filled is therefore:


|x\text \leq\text{ 0.03}
