Algebra.Com's Answer #157440 by jim_thompson5910(35256)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Both x>7 and {x | x>7} are correct as they basically mean the same thing. The second form is simply the first form, but it is using set-builder notation. If the book said \"state the solution in set-builder notation\" (or something like that), then you would use the second form. \n" ); document.write( " |
