Which inequality is true when p=15
?

Select TWO answers.
A.7+p≤21

B.7−p≤0

C.p−15>0

D.p−15≤0

E.7+p>30


Let's evaluate each inequality for \( p = 15 \):

- **A.** \( 7 + p \leq 21 \)
  \[
  7 + 15 = 22 \quad \text{and} \quad 22 \leq 21 \quad \text{is false}.
  \]

- **B.** \( 7 - p \leq 0 \)
  \[
  7 - 15 = -8 \quad \text{and} \quad -8 \leq 0 \quad \text{is true}.
  \]

- **C.** \( p - 15 > 0 \)
  \[
  15 - 15 = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad 0 > 0 \quad \text{is false}.
  \]

- **D.** \( p - 15 \leq 0 \)
  \[
  15 - 15 = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad 0 \leq 0 \quad \text{is true}.
  \]

- **E.** \( 7 + p > 30 \)
  \[
  7 + 15 = 22 \quad \text{and} \quad 22 > 30 \quad \text{is false}.
  \]

### Correct answers: 
**B** and **D**.
