To write in expanded form is to simply mean writing each number into its place value.
Answer:
The best way of writing this answer in an inequality pattern is 50 ≤ x ≥ 70
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable "x" is said to be greater than or equal to 50, that means that x could be 50, 51, 52, 53, 54......to infinity, all these values are true for x.
The second solution said x is greater or equal to 70. This also means that x could be 70, 71, 72, 73, ......... to infinity.
The inference that can be drawn from here is that x actually started from 50, so anything lesser than 50 is lesser than x, so 50 ≤ x. We can join the two answers together to get a range in a form like: 50 ≤ x ≥ 70
<u>old:</u> $16
<u>new:</u> $20
<u>percent increase</u>
-> formula: (new-old / old) x 100
(20-16 / 16) x 100
4/16 x 100
0.25 x 100
answer: 25% increase
