Question 1207723: In the United States,normal household voltage is 110 volts.However, it is not uncommon for actual voltage to differ from normal voltage by at most 5 volts. Express this situation as an inequality involving an absolute value. Use x as the actual voltage and solve for x.

This is my set up:

|x - 110| is less than or equal to 5.

Is this the correct set up?
