find range and make absolute value equation

Question

Details in the picture for the entree show 250 calories per entree, or 31.25 calories per nugget. The menu picture for a party tray of nuggets claims each nugget is 30 calories. This is because the actual calorie per nugget varies up to 3 calories depending on size. Write and solve an absolute value equation to illustrate the range of possible calories in each chicken nugget if the ideal calorie count for each nugget is 30.

Answer 1

Ok, so we know that the actual calorie per nugget varies up to 3 calories depending on its size. As a result, we will be adding the absolute value of 3 to the base number of calories, which is 30. So what I have come up with is:

(30+|3|)*x=y, since the number of numbers vary by 3, which mean the range of the slope would be from 27 up to 33, so this is the equation I have come up with.
