Answer:

B. $2a\leq 5$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the statement,

'The product of a number and 2 is no more than 5'.

Let the number = a.

So, the product of the number and 2 = $2a$

Now, this product is no more than 5.

<em>That is, the product is either equal to 5 or less than 5.</em>

Thus, we get the corresponding expressions is $2a\leq 5$ .

Hence, option B is correct.

Agata [3.3K]

$\bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}\\\\A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}\quad \begin{cases}A=\textit{accumulated amount}\to &8000\\P=\textit{original amount deposited}\\r=rate\to 5\%\to \frac{5}{100}\to &0.05\\n=\begin{array}{llll}\textit{times it compounds per year}\\\textit{is only once, so}\end{array}\to &1\\t=years\to &3\end{cases}$

$\bf 8000=P\left(1+\frac{0.05}{1}\right)^{1\cdot 3}\implies 8000=P(1.05)^3\implies \cfrac{8000}{1.05^3}=P\\\\\\6910.70\approx P\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{6911 = P}\qquad therefore\qquad 6911~~\leqslant ~~P$
