PLEASE HELP ME IM IN A FINAL!!!!

Answer 1

`1000\leq P\leq 15000`.

Explanation:

It is given that the population (P) varied from 1000 to 15000 in the rural towns.

We need to write an inequality which express the statement in symbols.

Variable P represents the population of rural towns.

Since population varied from 1000 to 15000, therefore the value of P must be greater than or equal to 1000 and less than or equal to 15000.

It can be written as

`1000\leq P\leq 15000`

Therefore, the required inequality is
`1000\leq P\leq 15000`.
