Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First of all let's notice that
while our original polynomial is real. So we can rule out the even options B and D. At this point, if the polynomial has a factor of
it means tha
is a zero of the polynomial. Let's check both 2 (for option a) and -2 (for option c)


At this point 2 is a zero, and our final factoring is a
A) x + y = 110
x - y = 40
B) Melvin swims for 35 minutes every day.
C) It is not possible
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Let x denote the duration for which Melvin plays tennis and y denote the duration for which he swims
Step 2 :
Part A :
Given that the total duration for which he plays and tennis is 110 minutes
so we have x + y = 110
Also given that he plays tennis for 40 minutes more than he swims
So, x = y+ 40 =>x-y = 40
So the linear pair of equations are
x + y = 110
x-y = 40
Step 3 :
Part B
Solving the above 2 equations we have
y+40+y = 110 = > 2y+ 40 = 110 = > y = 2y = 70 = >35
x = y+40 = 35+ 40 = 75
So Melvin plays tennis for 75 minutes and swims for 35 minutes every day.
Step 4 :
Part C
Given he plays and swims for 110 mins exactly, i.e x + y = 110
If Melvin plays tennis for 70 minutes , then x = 70, then the time for which he can swim is 110 - 70 = 40 mins.
He gets only 40 mins for swimming which is not 40 mins more than he plays tennis .
So this case is not possible.
2(4+2x)≥5x+5
4+2x≥5/2x+5/2 (divide both sides by 2)
3/2+2x≥5/2x (subtract 5/2 from both sides)
3/2≥1/2x (subtract 2x from both sides)
3≥x (multiply both sides by 2)
or x≤3
