Which inequality BEST represents the situation described? The dump truck can only hold 8 tons, maximum.

0 tons ≤  M ≤  8 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

The symbols use in inequalities are such that:

a < b  (a is strictly smaller than b)

a > b  (a is strictly larger than b)

a ≥ b (a is smaller than or equal to b)

a ≤ b (a is larger than or equal to b)

In this case, we have the situation:

"The dump truck can only hold 8 tons, maximum"

Then if M represents the mass that the dump truck can hold, we know that the maximum possible value of M is 8 tons.

Then we would have this written as:

M is smaller than or equal to 8 tons.

or:

M ≤ 8 tons.

We also can add that M needs to be larger than zero (we can not have a negative mass) then this is written as:

0 tons ≤  M ≤  8 tons.
