The maximum number of oranges in a box of volume one cubic foot can be modeled by the inequality |x − 17| ≤ 5, depending on the size of the oranges. Solve the inequality to find the greatest and least numbers of oranges that could be in a box. Complete the explanation of how you found your answer. The box can contain a minimum of oranges and a maximum of oranges. The inequality needs to be split into and before solving. The solutions to each of these inequalities can be combined to make ≤ x ≤ .

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
