On average, ryan can finish a puzzle in 3 hours but, depending on the difficulty of the puzzle, his time can vary let x represent the maximum and minimum time

Ryan's maximum time to complete a puzzle is 5 hours

Ryan's minimum time to complete a puzzle is 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

On average, Ryan can finish a puzzle in 3 hours but, depending on the difficulty of the puzzle, his time can vary from the average by 2 hours.

Which absolute value equation can be used to calculate Ryan's maximum and minimum time to complete a puzzle?

Let x represent the maximum and minimum time

we know that

The absolute value of the difference between x and the average must be equal to 2

so

Solve the absolute value

First case (positive case)

Second case (negative case)

Multiply by -1 both sides

therefore

Ryan's maximum time to complete a puzzle is 5 hours

Ryan's minimum time to complete a puzzle is 1 hour

both graphs increase on their domain

neither graph has a y-intercept

step-by-step explanation:

the following points can be visualized easily from the graph

answer:   expression= p+p*d%

price reduction + sale price = $625

sale price: $p+$p*d%

where d% is the percentage of discount

step-by-step explanation:

original price = p

price went down by $150 price reduction $p*d%

sale price= $ 475

therefore the price before sale is: $625

and the expression that shows the price before sale is: p+p*d%
