???

OpenStudy (automaticloveletter):

In order to vote you have to be 18 or older right? so it's greater than or equal to 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

use a variable as well, like x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so if x = age of person, then you would have \[\Large x \ge 18\] to represent those who can vote (assuming they satisfy the inequality)

OpenStudy (automaticloveletter):

x ≥ 18
