To determine the correct interpretation of the inequality, let's break it down:
d ≤ 750
In this inequality, "d" represents the amount of money the team can spend on jerseys. The symbol "≤" means "less than or equal to."
So, the correct interpretation in terms of this situation is:
D. The team has less than $750 to spend on jerseys.
This means that the team cannot spend more than $750 per jersey. It could spend exactly $750 or any amount less than $750, but not more.
