You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let 'x' be the price of the car\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"no less than $5000\" means that the price must be equal to or more than $5000 which means that $\"x%3E=5000\"$ . Alternatively, you can write it as $\"5000%3C=x\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Also, \"no more than $10000\" means that the price cannot exceed $10000. So $\"x%3C=10000\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now combine the two inequalities to get $\"5000%3C=x%3C=10000\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
