We are pretty sure that’s a typo. Because it’s inclusive meaning it includes 50 and 58 . Right?

Never mind, he realizes now it should not have a greater than or equal to sign. Just a greater than sign. Thank you

I would venture to say that a whole bunch of folks do not. That's not exactly something that most people need to know in their line of work. It's more of a specialized thing.

Just put it on a scale and program the thing to either show a red light for bad or a green light for good.
That's all that will happen in the real world anyway.

This is correct. How many pounds is 54 ounces??

Did anyone point out there isn’t an AP exam for algebra 2?

It's friggin 2018... there isn't an app or program that could easily tell you this??? Not to mention if this is the QI's job, by now he'd have these numbers memorized.
