It would help to identify what you can from the wording, like so:

Answer 17

X - 10 divided by - 2?

Answer 18

I don't know which underline means greater, and which underline doesn;t.

Answer 19

So writing it out, you would get something like:

\(\Large 10-\frac{x}{(-2)} \ge -3 \)

Answer 20

That sounds more complicated than I can imagine 0-o. So the answer would be >_
Which underline means great or equal and which one means less or equal?

Answer 21

And to determine which one means what, you have to look at the wording.

Usually ">" means that "such and such is \(\color{red}{greater~ than}\) blank blank"

And "<" means that "such and such is \(\color{red}{less ~than}\) blank blank"

Answer 22

ohhhh

Answer 23

Same rule applies with the underlined ones, just "or equal to" is added in (:
