Answer 1

The correct choice is the last one.

If d is the amount of time Tim walks each day, then the time he walks over an 8 day period would be 8d.

Our inequality says that 8d is greater than 200; this means he walks more than 200 minutes total. This can be solved to find d, the number of minutes he walks each day.
