Which statement describes whether an equation or an inequality better models the situation? A. An equation models the situation better, because there could be multiple values for y. B. An equation models the situation better, because there is a single value for y. C. An inequality models the situation better, because y could be a range of values extending into the positive direction on the number line. D. An inequality models the situation better, because y could be a range of values extending into the negative direction on the number line.
