rcp031 · Answer

she wants to sleep at least 8 hours means less than or equal to 8 hours.
she must work at least 5 hours means less than or equal to 5 hours.

davejavous · Answer

No, it does not @rcp031. To work AT LEAST 5 hours means that 5 hours in the MINIMUM.

rcp031 · Answer

Oh, that means greater than 5 hour. thanks @davejavous.

rcp031 · Answer

Let x be the number of hours pamela wants to sleep than x>8 will be the inequality.
