The wall of a bedroom is 12 ft. long. A bed 6.5 ft. in length is already along the wall. Which inequality shows the length (l) of a dresser that can also be placed against the wall?(1 point)

l+6.5≤12
l plus 6.5 less-than-or-equal-to 12
The correct inequality would be l + 6.5 ≤ 12, which means that the length of the dresser plus the length of the bed should be less than or equal to the length of the wall.
The correct inequality that shows the length (l) of a dresser that can also be placed against the wall is:
l + 6.5 ≤ 12
