Question
A bottling company is filling 32 oz bottles of water. A bottle is accepted if it contains between 32.85 and 31.15 oz of water. What absolute value inequality describes the tolerance of volume of water in the bottle?

midway between the two extremes is (32.85+31.15)/2 = 32.00
So, |x-32.00| <= 0.85
So, |x-32.00| <= 0.85
