Do you have the answer choices?
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let point
be the point where the straight line drawn from point
meets the straight line
, it is evident that
and
is similar given that both triangles share the same angle,
. Hence, the ratio of the sides of each triangle is the same. Specifically,
.
Performing cross multiplication yields
.
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
Answer:

it must always have one of the sign
