Answer: d. [tex]4.5\leq c\text{ or }x\leq12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of ounces of clay that Elisa uses to make one vase of either size denotes by 'c'

Given : To make a small vase, Elisa uses no more than 4.5 ounces of clay.

i.e. [tex]4.5\leq c[/tex]

Also, To make a large vase, she uses at least 12 ounces of clay.

i.e. [tex]c\leq12[/tex]

Then , the compound inequality represents the number of ounces of clay that Elisa uses to make one vase of either size will be :-

[tex]4.5\leq c\text{ or }c\leq12[/tex]
