Answer: 7 + x ≥ 10

Explanation:

Let’s use x as “a number.”

“7 more than x is at least 10”

“More than” means + (plus)

“At least” means ≥ (equal to or greater than) because it could be equal to 10, or it could be more than 10.

7 + x ≥ 10

It should be x+7 > (or equal to) 10

This is because the "greater than or equal to" symbol indicates that whatever is being added to seven (fills in x), must be more than or exactly 10.
