The number of signatures collected by Ali is 520.

The total number of signatures to be collected by Ali is atleast 1000.

That is, she can collect more than or equal to 1000.

The remaining weeks, she have is 6 weeks.

The signature to be collected is,


1000-520=480

Therefore, atleast 480 signature should be collected in 6 weeks.

So, in one week the number of signature to be collected is,


(480)/(6)=80

Therefore, she should collect at least 80 signatures each week .

So, the required number line is, option A, since she can collect 80 or more than 80 signatures in a week to get atleast 1000 signatures.
