Explanation:

got it right on quiz

Answer 2

Here, Your Inequality would be:
12 + 5x ≥ 60
Subtract 12 from both sides,
5x ≥ 48
Divide by 5,
x ≥ 9.6

Number of weeks can't be in fraction, so it would be 10 plus that initial 5 weeks so in total it is 15

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

Hope this helps!
