Answer:

Steve was correct in his statement.

Explanation:

According to standard notation, opening bracket (
[ ) represents the lower bound of a set so that elements of the set are equal or greater than lower bound. In addition, closure parenthesis (
) ) represents the upper bound of a set so that element of the set are less than upper bound.

In consequence, Steve was correct in his statement.
