Apublisher claims that the average salary paid at its company is $37,500, but it could differ by as much as $4,500. write an absolute value inequality to determine the range of salaries at this company.
|x − 37,500| ≤ 4,500
|x − 4,500| ≤ 37,500
|x − 37,500| ≥ 4,500
|x − 4,500| ≥ 37,500

|x − 37,500| ≤ 4,500

Step-by-step explanation:

salary - 37,500 can be up  +4500 or as negative -4500

as much as means less than or equal to

We use absolute values to indicate this

|x − 37,500| ≤ 4,500

parallel and congruent

step-by-step explanation:

the movement of translation is linear.   these have the same translation because you are using the same rule for each point of the triangle so you will see the same slope being used to get from a point on the triangle to its image.

same slope!   you should think parallel when you see those 2 word together (well unless it's the same line but it can't be because we are coming from different points here)

congruent! because each point is being moved the same distance.
