30≤x≤50
30 less-than-or-equal-to x less-than-or-equal-to 50

30≤x<50
30 less-than-or-equal-to x less than 50

50≤x<75
50 less-than-or-equal-to x less than 75

5≤x<30

Answer 1

The appropriate interval for the $10 shipping rate, which applies to packages that weigh from 30 pounds to less than 50 pounds, is:

30≤x<50
30 less-than-or-equal-to x less than 50.

This means that if a package weighs 30 pounds or more but less than 50 pounds, the shipping charge will be $10.
