In science class, the average score on a lab report is 82 points, with all students scoring within 3.2 points of the average. If x represents a student's score, write an equation that represents the minimum and maximum scores. |x − 3.2| = 82 |x + 3.2| = 82 |x − 82| = 3.2 |x + 82| = 3.2

Respuesta :

The absolute value equation that represents the minimum and maximum scores is |x - 82| = 3.2. Then the correct option is C.

What is an absolute value function?

The absolute value function is a function that contains an algebraic expression with absolute value symbols.

The absolute value parent function f(x) = |x| is defines as

f(x) = x  {if x ≥ 0, then f(x) = x and if x < 0, then f(x) = -x}

Now, in the given question 3.2 of the average is the score within which all students have scored

Hence, the distance between the maximum and minimum =  3.2

Since the average score of all the scores = 82.

The equation will be the difference between x and 82 will be equal to ±3.2. Then we have

|x - 82| = 3.2

Hence, the absolute value equation that represents the minimum and maximum scores is |x - 82| = 3.2.

Then the correct option is C.
