Solution
The correct option is Dc≤−1 Given, c is a number that is not more than -1 which means the maximum value of the number c is −1.
Hence, c can have any value which is less than or equal to −1.
Representing the above statement as an inequality: c≤−1
Hence, all the values less than or equal to -1 are accepted.
Option (a): c=−1
Value of c is equal to -1. → ACCEPTED
Option (b): c can be 0
Value of c is equal to 0 which is greater than -1. →REJECTED
Option (c): c can be -2
Value of c is equal to -2 which is less than -1. → ACCEPTED
Option (d): c≤−1
Value of c is less than or equal to -1. → ACCEPTED
