Fruit snacks are packaged into bags at a factory. Each bag should have 20 snacks in it, but a bag with 19 or 21 snacks is acceptable. Write an absolute equation in terms of x, where x is the number of snacks in a bag, that indicates the least and greatest number of snacks it is acceptable to have in one bag.

x ≥ 19

Step-by-step explanation:

since 19 is the least amount of snacks that can be put in the bags

1.4

2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3

answer: are you
