    X is such that X belongs to rational numbers and X is less than or equal to 1 and greater than 0

    X is such that X belongs to rational numbers and X is less than or equal to 1 and greater than 0 Greater than 0 means we don't include 0 0 < less than or equal to 1 means we include 1: 0 < x <= 1

    Translate and solve: 30 times m is greater than −330. (Write your solution in interval notation.)

    Translate and solve: 30 times m is greater than −330. (Write your solution in interval notation.) 30 times m: 30m is greater than -330 30m > -330 Using our equation and interval solver, we get: m > -11

    Write the interval (2,5) in set builder notation

    Write the interval (2,5) in set builder notation It's a closed interval, so we type in [2,5] into the search engine, and we get: {x|2<= x <= 5}

    People with a drivers license are at least 16 years old and no older than 85 years old

    People with a drivers license are at least 16 years old and no older than 85 years old. Set up the inequality, where p represents the people: The phrase at least means greater than or equal to. So we use the >= sign. 16 <= p The phrase no older than means less than or equal to. So we use the...

    A certain species of fish costs $3.19 each. You can spend at most $35. How many of this type of f

    A certain species of fish costs $3.19 each. You can spend at most $35. How many of this type of fish can you buy for your aquarium? Let the number of fish be f. We have the following inequality where "at most" means less than or equal to: 3.19f <= 35 Typing this inequality into our search...

    The product of x and 7 is not greater than 21

    The product of x and 7 is not greater than 21 The product of x and 7: 7x Is not greater than means less than or equal to, so we have our algebraic expression: 7x <= 21 If you want to solve this inequality and interval notation, use our calculator.

    x is smaller than 9 and greater than 4

    x is smaller than 9 and greater than 4 Written as: 4 < x < 9 To display the interval notation, use our interval notation calculator.

    -2 <= x +4 < 9

    -2 <= x +4 < 9 Subtract 4 from each piece: -2 - 4 <= x < 5 Simplify: -6 <= x < 5 To find the interval notation, we set up our notation: The left side has a solid bracket, since we have an equal sign: The right side has an open parentheses, since we have no equal sign [-6, 5)

    the sum of a number times 3 and 30 is less than 17

    the sum of a number times 3 and 30 is less than 17 A number is denoted as an arbitrary variable, let's call it x. x Times 3 means we multiply x by 3: 3x The sum of a number times 3 and 30 means we add 30 to 3x above 3x + 30 Is less than 17 means we have an inequality, so we set 3x + 30 less...

    -3x<= -9 or 5+x<6

    -3x<= -9 or 5+x<6 Take each piece: -3x<= -9 Divide each side by -3: x>=3 Now take 5 + x < 6 5 + x < 6 Subtract 5 from each side: x < 1 Joining together the two inequalities, we have: x<1 or x>=3 Use our interval notion calculator to find the interval notation of this compound inequality

    let x be the variable, an age that is at least 57 years old

    let x be the variable, an age that is at least 57 years old At least means greater than or equal to x >= 57

    Nine less than the product of 2 and y is not less than 15

    The product of 2 and y means we multiply 2y Nine less than that product means we subtract 9 2y - 9 Finally, the entire expression is not less than 15, which means 15 or more. We use greater than or equal to 2y - 9 >= 15 If you want to solve this inequality and write the interval notation, use...

    The sum of 5x and 2x is at least 70

    Is at least means greater than or equal to: 5x + 2x >= 70 If we combine like terms, we have: 7x >=70 We can further simplify by dividing each side of the inequality by 7 x >=10 If you want the interval notation for that, use the interval notation calculator.

    All real numbers that are less than equal to -1 or greater than 5

    We have two expressions here, so we need a union since we have the word or. First, All real numbers less than or equal to -1 is x <= -1. All real numbers greater than 5 is x > 5 So we have x <= -1 U x > 5

    X is a natural number greater than 6

    I saw this ticket come through today. The answer is x > 6. Natural numbers are positive numbers not 0. So 1, 2, 3, ... Let me build this shortcut into the calculator. Also, here is the interval notation for that expression.
