The compound inequality 8.00 ≤ x < 9.50 represents all values, x, for which college students are paid hourly as teacher assis
Orlov [11]

Answer: x≥ 8.00 and x < 9.50 is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, given expression 8.00 ≤ x < 9.50

Where x is the value for which college students are paid hourly as teacher assistants.

so, x is greater than or equal to 8.00

Therefore, x\geq 8.00  

And, x is less than 9.50

Therefore,  x < 9.50

On combining both expression we get,  x\geq 8.00 and x < 9.50.

Thus, Third Option is correct.

Rates and ratios simalar
Alex777 [14]
Rate is closer to a constant pattern , example: I'm walking at a rate of 2 miles an hour.

Ratio is related to the proportion of two or more objects, example: The ratio for a perfect tang juice is 1 packet of tang dust thingy for 1.5 liters of water.

Hope it helps :)
