You can put this solution on YOUR website!
10,000 + 750 >= x >= 10,000 - 750
10750+%3E=+x+%3E=+9250

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
10,000-750=9,250
10,000+750=10,750
The crowd could be as small as 9,250 and as big as 10,750
if the crowd =x you can write the inequality as:
x%3E=9250
and
x%3C=10750
or even as:
9250%3C=x%3C=10750
