Question

Let x represent any year. Write an inequality in terms of x and 1610

Answer 1

The year of the empire fell = 1610.

We are given x as a variable that represents the year after the given year 1610.

We need to setup an inequality for this situation.

Please note: The year after the year number 1610 will have a number that greater than 1610.

Let us make a statement for inequality to be written.

"The year after the 1610 is greater than 1610".

The year after the 1610 is x and gerater than symbol is >.

So, we can setup an inequality as:

x > 1610 : Read as x is greater than 1610.
