Answer:

Correct option is:

D: all positive values less than or equal to 77

Step-by-step explanation:

Geraldo has a coupon for $12 off the total bill at a local restaurant.

Geraldo does not want to spend more than $65.

Let x be the amount that Geraldo spends

Clearly x>0

then, x-12≤65

Adding 12 on both sides, we get

x-12+12≤65+12

⇒ x≤77

Hence, Solution set contains {x|0<x≤77}

So, Correct option is:

D: all positive values less than or equal to 77
