Question

On average, Mary can drive to the supermarket in 10 minutes but, depending on traffic, the drive can vary from the average by 5 minutes.

Which absolute value equation can be used to calculate Mary’s maximum and minimum drive times?

Let x represent the maximum and minimum time.

∣∣x−5∣∣=10

∣∣x+10∣∣=5

∣∣x+5∣∣=10

|x−10|=5

    Answer:
