Can I have help with this question? Write an inequality for the sentence. Then solve the inequality. Twelve less than a number is at most 7.
A. x - 12 <_ 7; x <_ -5
B. x - 12 <_ 7; x <_ 17
C. x - 12 <_ 7; x <_ 9
D. x - 12 <_ 7; x <_ 19
If anyone can help me with this I would be thankful!

Twelve less than a number ----> x-12
is at most 7 -----> must be less than or equal to 7 ----> ≤ 7
