Answer 1

Hey there Blackhole,

Your question states: Melissa is an avid bicyclist who has moved from New York State to Florida. Which of the following best explains why she should check traffic laws for bike riders before she starts biking in Florida?

Based on my research, Traffic rules and regulations are likely different in her new state. Not everywhere you go you can ride bikes. I know in a city I got to, I can skate on there side walks. You could get in trouble, so I never did it. So in her case, she would have to do the same.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

We are trying to find what best exlains why she should check traffic laws for bike riders before she starts biking. What is the most descriptive and informative answer choice? Try to think of something that makes the most sense from the question.

The question states:

-traffic laws

The one that talks the most about traffic laws is "Traffic rules and regulations are likely different in her new state". Or "B".

This uses traffic laws, is informative, and provides the best reasoning. 

Since Melissa is an avid biker, she would know important safety rules. The weather and terrain don't really apply to "traffic rules' and an avid biker probably wouldn't go riding without a helmet. 

I hope this helps!
