To identify the solutions for the inequalities given:
1. \( X > 3 \)
2. \( X \leq 20 \)
We need to find the values of \( X \) that satisfy both conditions.
The first inequality states that \( X \) must be greater than 3. The second inequality states that \( X \) can be equal to or less than 20.
Combining these two conditions, we get:
\[ 3 < X \leq 20 \]
This means that \( X \) can take any value between 3 and 20, not including 3 but including 20.
Now, looking at the options provided:
- **16**: This satisfies \( 3 < 16 \leq 20 \), so it's a valid solution.
- **Two of these**: This seems to imply that there is at least one more valid solution.
- **0**: This does not satisfy \( 3 < X \), so it's not a valid solution.
- **31**: This does not satisfy \( 3 < X \) or \( X \leq 20 \), so it's not a valid solution.
Since 16 is a solution, and based on the context of "Two of these," it suggests that there should be another valid solution within the specified range. However, since there is only one explicit solution provided (16), we lean toward the understanding that "Two of these" refers indirectly to more values that could be included in the range between (3, 20] and does not directly conform to listed options.
So, the best conclusion would be that only one specific value is mentioned (16), but with the phrasing in the options, the best fitting answer would be:
**Two of these**, as it acknowledges the fact there is at least one solution (16), and potentially more within the range that could be listed if not restricted to these particular numeric options.
