We are given the following word problem and we are supposed to convert it into an inequality.

The sum of seven and the product of -5 and the number x is greater than or equal to 57.

Which means that we have to add 7 and the product -5 and x and that will be greater or equal than 57


7+(-5\cdot x)\ge57

As you can see, the sum of 7 and the product (-5*x) is greater or equal than 57
