For a snowstorm in a certain town, the minimum rate of snowfall recorded was 0.6 inches per hour, and the maximum rate of snowfall recorded was 1.8 inches per hour. Which inequality is true for all values of s, where s represents a rate of snowfall, in inches per hour, recorded for this snowstorm?
Correct answer: D. 0.6 ≤ s ≤ 1.8
- A. s ≥ 2.4
- B. s ≥ 1.8
- C. 0 ≤ s ≤ 0.6
- D. 0.6 ≤ s ≤ 1.8
Explanation
Choice D is correct. It's given that for a snowstorm in a certain town, the minimum rate of snowfall recorded was 0.6 inches per hour, the maximum rate of snowfall recorded was 1.8 inches per hour, and s represents a rate of snowfall, in inches per hour, recorded for this snowstorm. It follows that the inequality 0.6 ≤ s ≤ 1.8 is true for all values of s.
