Question

{36,37,38,39,...59}
I came up with : {40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50,...58}
can someone tell me if this is right, please?

Answer 1

What is the question asking for?

Answer 2

From what I see they gave you some list of numbers from 36 to 59. And you found a list of numbers from 40 to 58. So, I understand what you did, but to know if it's correct, we'll need to know what the original question/instructions were. :)

Answer 3

it says to use inequality notation to express the condition x must meet in order to be a member of the set

Answer 4

Oh... I see. They just want you to use an equation to describe what is happening.

Answer 5

So, look, all the numbers are between 36 and 59. They also include 36 and 59.

Answer 6

To write our english word "in between" in mathematics we use two inequality signs
\[36 \leq x \leq 59\]
we are done!
See how the "x" (any number you want) sits between the 36 and 59 just like the list they gave you? This is just a much shorter way of writing it. :)

Answer 7

thats it?

Answer 8

Also, we use the "less than or equal" since 36 and 59 were allowed.

Answer 9

Yep, that should be enough.

Answer 10

wow thanks!

Answer 11

We used "inequality notation" and we expressed the "condition x must meet to be in the set". No problem! :)
