Answer: 1≤x<12

Explanation:

The values that are greater than or equal 1 but less than 12 are values ranging from 1 to 11 i.e {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11}. Note that 1 is included because the number is greater than or equal to 1 (1 included) and less than 12(12 not included).

x≥1 and x< 12

if x≥1, it means 1≤x

combining both inequality

1≤x and x<12

1≤x<12

The interval notation that represent the set S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11} will be given as S = {x: 1≤x<12}
