C.They will all be in the first quadrant.

D.They will be negative numbers.

Answer 1

D. They will be negative numbers.

Explanation:

If the inequality models scores of 20 and 30 points, then the values for variables x and y must be positive, because you can't score a negative number, you score or you don't that's it.

Therefore, the right answer is D. They will be negative numbers, because score can't be negative numbers.
