Difficulty:Easy

A

$d \leq 1, 510$

B

$1, 510 \leq d \leq 4, 130$

C

$d \geq 4, 130$

D

$4, 130 \leq d \leq 5, 640$

College Board · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is B. Choice B is correct. It's given that during spring migration, a dragonfly traveled a minimum of 1,510 miles and a maximum of 4,130 miles between stopover locations. It's also given that d represents a possible distance, in miles, this dragonfly traveled between stopover locations. It follows that the inequality 1,510 ≤ d ≤ 4,130 represents this situation.
