Solve the problem.A political poll has a built in error tolerance. A candidate receiving 41% support, according to the poll, could actually have 43% support and the poll would still be considered accurate. The error tolerance for the candidate with 41% support is 3%. An acceptable percentage p for the candidate must satisfy the inequality   ? 3. Solve the inequality and interpret the result.  

A. 41 ? p ? 44 ; Actual support for the candidate could vary between 41% and 44%.
B. -44 ? p ? -38 ; Actual support for the candidate will not vary because you cannot have negative percentages.
C. 38 ? p ? 44 ; Actual support for the candidate could vary between  and 44%.
D. -3 ? p ? 3 ; Actual support for the candidate could vary between -3% and 3%.
