  A)  x is less than 4 AND x is less than 1

Step-by-step explanation:

It's all about understanding the meaning of the English words involved.

A) any member of the solution set must be less than 1 and less than 4. Only numbers less than 1 can satisfy both requirements. (This is the correct choice.)

__

B) members of the solution set may be less than 1 or may be greater than 3. Numbers less than 1 are part of the solution set, but not all of it.

__

C) members of the solution set are required to be both greater than 3 and less than 1. There are no such numbers. The solution set is the empty set.

__

D) members of the solution set may be less than 4 or less than 1. Any number less than 4 will be a member of the solution set.
