A truck can carry a maximum load of 2,000 pounds. The driver weighs 180 pounds, and each box weighs 60 pounds. Which inequality represents the number of boxes (b) the truck can carry?

A 180 + 60b > 2000
B 180 + 60b < 2000
C 180 + 60b <= 2000
D 180 + 60b >= 2000

✓ Correct Answer: Option C

The total weight (driver's weight plus the weight of all boxes) must not exceed the maximum load. Therefore, the sum of 180 and 60b must be less than or equal to 2000.
