Answer:

The correct option are C and E.

Explanation:

Let x be the total weight of the cup in ounces.

It is given that the cup is filled with 4 oz. of yogurt before any toppings are added. So, the initial weight of the cup must greater than or equal to 4.


x\geq 4 ........(1)

After that toppings are added, they are allowed up to a total weight of 6 oz.

So, the weight of the cup cannot be more that 6


x\leq 6 ........(2)

On combining (1) and (2). We get


4\leq x\leq 6

The acceptable weights for the frozen yogurt is represented by the inequality
4\leq x\leq 6.

It means option C is correct and options A, B and D are incorrect.

In option E,


|x-5|\leq 1


-1leq x-5\leq 1

Add 5 on each sides.


4 leq x\leq 6

Option E is correct.

In option F,


|x-2|\leq 6


-6 leq x-2\leq 6

Add 2 on each sides.


-4 leq x\leq 8

Option F is incorrect.

Therefore, the correct options are C and E.
