Write each statement using an absolute value equation or inequality. r is no less than 1 unit from 29.

Hello everyone. We're going to rewrite the statement L. is no less than five units from 31 using absolute values and inequality symbols. So L. Is no less than five units from 31 means that the distance between L. And 31 has to be five units or more so greater than or equal. So to find the distance we would do subtraction. So we're gonna do the absolute value of L -31. And we know that that has to be greater than or equal to five. But we're also gonna do the absolute value of 31 -L. Because we don't know which direction we were subtracting in And that also has to be greater than or equal to five. So now that I have this set up using inequalities and absolute values I'm gonna check what my answer choices are and what I just wrote matches answer choice B. So we have the absolute value of L minus 31 is greater than or equal to five. Or the absolute value of 31 minus L. Is greater than or equal to five. Have a nice day.
