Question

All real numbers that are greater than or equal to -1.5 and less than 9.2

Answer 1

cool
what about them?

Answer 2

i need to translate it into an inequality but I don't know how

Answer 3

Let's break up the question into 2 parts and tackle them individually first.
"all real numbers greater than or equal to -1.5"
all real numbers >= -1.5

If we let the variable x be all real numbers, we get:

x >= -1.5


Can you do something similar for the second half, all real numbers less than 9.2?

Answer 4

so would the it be 9.2<x>-1.5?

Answer 5

no

Answer 6

it would be
\[-1.5\leq x<9.2\]

Answer 7

thank u so much

Answer 8

Just to clarify, 9.2<x>-1.5 says
All real numbers greater than -1.5 and
All real numbers greater than 9.2
(you read from the x towards the sign)
