Solution
Solution Steps
To express the statement "Harry's GPA is at least 2.1 but at most 3.4" in interval notation, we need to identify the correct interval that includes both endpoints since "at least" and "at most" imply inclusivity.
Step 1: Identify the Interval Notation
The statement "Harry's GPA is at least 2.1 but at most 3.4" implies that the GPA can be equal to 2.1 and 3.4, meaning both endpoints are included.
Step 2: Write the Interval Notation
In interval notation, an inclusive range is represented with square brackets. Therefore, the interval notation for the given statement is:
\[ [2.1, 3.4] \]
Final Answer
The answer is the first option:
\[
\boxed{[2.1, 3.4]}
\]
