Question 1043883: Write each specification as an absolute value inequality:
-2.5<= a <= 2.5
Would it be correct to draw a number line and realize that 0 is the halfway point between -2.5 and 2.5? Would you then have |a + or - 0| < 2.5? Or is that an incorrect way to answer the problem? Thanks for your help!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
it seems like +abs%28+a+%29+%3C=+2.5+
would work.
If +a+=+-2.6+ the inequality fails
If +a+=+2.6+ it fails also
