Question

a pizza company has a rule that its pizza must be delivered in fewer than 24 minutes or it is considered late. which inequality represents the time t in minutes in which the pizza must be delivered before it is late?
a) t < 24
b) t > 24
c) t ≤ 24
d) t ≥ 24

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the problem

The pizza company requires delivery in fewer than 24 minutes to not be late. Let \( t \) be the delivery time in minutes.

Step2: Translate the condition to inequality

"Fewer than 24 minutes" means \( t \) is less than 24, so the inequality is \( t < 24 \).

Answer:

A. \( t < 24 \)
