Question

Can someone help me?

Answer 1

Answer:

The symbols that we will use are:

a > b   (a is larger than b)

a < b   (a is smaller than b)

a ≥ b   (a is larger than or equal to b)

a ≤ b  (a is smaller than or equal to b).

1) if x represents the inches of snow, we have:

"More than 4 inches" means that x must be strictly larger than 4 inches, this can be written as:

x > 4 inches.

2)  "less than 25 inches" means that x must be strictly smaller than 25 inches, this can be written as:

x < 25 inches.

3) If T represents the temperature

"No more than 8°F" means that the temperature can be smaller than 8°F, or equal to 8°F, then we can write this situation with:

T ≤ 8°F

4) "At least 7°F" means that the temperature can be 7°F or more than that, then we can write this situation as:

T ≥ 7°F
