-8 ≥ x ≥ 0

The solution set is [-8, 0].
Riia

The given statement is

all real numbers at least –8 and at most 0

At least means the minimum value which is -8 here. And at most means the maximum value which is 0 here.

So x is in between -8 and 0 incuding -8 and 0. And the compound iequality is

[tex]-8 \leq x \leq  0[/tex]

And the correct option is D .
