Students who score within 14 points of the number 88 will pass a particular test. Write this statement using absolute value notation and use the variable x for the score.

|88-x| ≤ 14

Step-by-step explanation:

their score has to be within 14 points of 88.

if their score is above 88, the number will be negative, but the absolute value makes the number positive. if that number is still within 14 of 88, they pass.

if their score is below 88, the number will be negative, and the absolute value keeps the number positive. if that number is still within 14 of 88, they pass.

in simplified version   it would be x ≤-4

step-by-step explanation:

multiply each term in x ≤-4 by -1

answer is x<
