    Answer:(c)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    Inequality is 10x+18\leq 238

    Subtract 18 from both side of the inequality

    \Rightarrow 10x+18-18\leq 238-18\\\Rightarrow 10x\leq 220

    divide both sides by 10

    \Rightarrow \frac{10x}{10}\leq \frac{220}{10}\\\Rightarrow x\leq 22

    Therefore, maximum value of x can be 22 i.e. at most 22 days
