QuestionQuestion 4 This question has two parts. First, answer Part A. Then, answer Part B.
Part A PAINT A manufacturer claims that their cans of paint contain exactly 130 fluid ounces of paint. The amount of paint in each can of paint must be accurate within ±3.05\pm 3.05 fluid ounces of the actual amount of paint. a. Write an absolute value inequality to represent the possible amount of paint, in fluid ounces, pp for which the manufacturers claim is correct.

Studdy Solution
To express this range as an absolute value inequality, we consider the deviation from 130 fluid ounces. The inequality is:
p1303.05 |p - 130| \leq 3.05
This inequality states that the difference between the actual amount p p and the claimed amount 130 should be no more than 3.05 fluid ounces.
The absolute value inequality representing the possible amount of paint is:
p1303.05 |p - 130| \leq 3.05
