Answer:
x ≥ 36 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The speed of a major storm is at least 110 miles per hour while the speed of the slowest hurricane is at least 74 miles per hour.
Let x represent how much greater these wind speeds are than the slowest hurricane. Therefore:
x ≥ 110 miles per hour - 74 miles per hour
x ≥ 36 miles per hour
This means that the winds speed must be 36 miles per hour greater than the slowest hurricane.
