Eve knits scarves for her online store. This week she has already knitted 9 scarves. There are 2 days left in the work week. She set a goal for herself to knit at least 17 scarves and at the most 19 scarves this week. Eve wants to know how many scarves she should knit each day to meet her goal.
Which inequality represents the given situation?
A.
17 ≤ 2x - 9 ≤ 19
B.
17 ≥ 2x + 9 ≥ 19
C.
17 ≤ 2x - 9 ≥ 19
D.
17 ≤ 2x + 9 ≤ 19
we can eliminate A and C first because A says 17 would be the most or equal to when we know she said 19 would be the most and C says that 19 would be the least or equal to. so the answer would be D. but it’s D because B says 17 would be the most or equal while saying 19 would be the least and we know that’s not true.
