Michel Can travel 70 mile on one gallon which is 1400 miles on 20 gallons
Laura can only travel 26 miles on one gallon which is 520 miles on 20 gallons
The answer should be C. 3
Answer:
x=16
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply both sides of the equation by 2
multiply the number
reduce the number
1) When the denominator equals zero that is a critical point
=> x - 2 = 0 => x = 2.
So x = 2 is a critical point
2) Simplify the numerator to find an expresion of the king p(x) ≥ 0 or p(x) ≤ 0. Where p(x) equals zero you have other(s) critical point(s)
Multiply both terms:
[2x + 5] / [ x - 2] = [x - 1] / [x - 2]
for x ≠ 2 => 2x + 5 = x - 1
=> 2x - x = - 1 - 5
=> x = - 6
Then, the two critical points are x = 2 and x = - 6.
Answer: option B.
