Bethany, Lauren, Amanda, and David all meet at a family reunion. They are comparing their ages. They have found that Lauren is 1

3 years older than Bethany and David is 11 years older than Amanda. They also found that the product of Bethany's and Lauren's ages is equal to twice Amanda's age. Also, if they subtract 20 years from both Bethany's and Lauren's age, the product is equal to David's age.

As stated in the question 
Bethany - x
Amanda - y
the relationships are 
Lauren is 13 years older than Bethany 
Laurens age = x + 13
David is 11 years older than Amanda 
Davids age = y + 11
product of Bethany's and Laurens ages equal to twice Amandas age 
x * (x+13) = 2y
x² + 13x = 2y
divide all by 2
x²/2 + 13/2x = y
if they subtract 20 from Bethany and Laurens, then product is equal to Davids age
(x-20)(x+13-20) = y +11
(x-20)(x-7) = y+11
x² -7x -20x+140 = y+11
x² -27x +129 = y

the 2 equations to determine the relationships are 
y = x²/2 + 13/2x 
y = x² -27x +129
the first option is correct

An educator believes that new reading activities for elementary school children will improve reading
Damm [24]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you forgot to attach the scores shown in the back-to-back stem-and-leaf display. So we do not know what the numbers are and we do not have any reference at all

What we can do to help you is to comment on the following general terms.

There have been previous and similar experiments or projects like this in other schools in America. These results suggest that the new activities are better because extra or special reading comprehension programs better prepare students to understand what they are reading and comprehend more than basic ideas of the text.

Students that participate in these programs develop a better sense to understand and like what they are reading, considerably increasing their focus and attention.

These programs have resulted positively when trying to improve the marks of the students, compared to other traditional approaches.
