Which of the following situations could be represented by the inequality below?

t<14

hi <3

product means multiplication, therefore we know there has to be a '2k' and we can eliminate option A

also, there is a mention of subtraction, so we can also eliminate option B

now we are left with C and D

it is stated that it is being subtracted FROM 17, therefore the 17 would have to come first

in short, your answer is option C

hope this helps :)
