Walter is helping to make cookies for a basketball tournament. He's made 15 cookies so far. His coach asked him to make at least 20 cookies but no more than 55. Solve the inequality and interpret the solution. 20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55 5 ≤ x ≤ 40; Walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≥ x ≥ 40; Walter needs to make less than 5 more cookies or more than 40. 35 ≤ x ≤ 70; Walter needs to make at least 35 more cookies but no more than 70. 35 ≥ x ≥ 70; Walter needs to make less than 35 more cookies or more than 70. PLEASE HELP IT URGENT!

Answer:

Walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40 cookies

Explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55

Subtract 15 from all sides

20-15 ≤ x + 15-15 ≤ 55-15

5 ≤ x ≤ 40

Walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40 cookies
