Answer:

Explanation:

Read this is as "x is 5 units away from _____ on a number line?" We don't have a number that x is 5 units away from, so that number is just 0. The absolute value inequality is

| x - 0 | ≤ 5

If you were to take this expression out of the absolute value symbols and put it into an inequality statement, because it is a "less than or equal to" inequality, that makes this a conjunction, and

-5 ≤ x ≤ 5

because those numbers greater than -5 and less than 5 are all less than 5 units away from 0.
