Two skaters are racing toward the finish line of a race. the first skater has a 40 meters lead and is traveling at a rate of 12 meters per second. the second skater traveling at a rate of 14 meters per second. how long will it take for the second skater to pass the first skater?

Acable company claims that the average household pays $78 a month for a basic cable plan, but it could differ by as much as $20. write an absolute value inequality to determine the range of basic cable plan costs with this cable company. a. |x − 78| ≥ 20 b. |x − 20| ≥ 78 c. |x − 20| ≤ 78 d. |x − 78| ≤ 20
