in order to manufacture a polymer for soft drink containers, a chemical reaction must take place within 10°C of 200°C. Write this temperature restriction as an absolute value inequality, then solve to find the acceptable temperature.
-----
|T-200| = 10
-------
-10 <= T-200 <= 10
----------------------
Add 200 along the line to get:
190 <= T <= 210
