I believe the answers are c and d
Answer:
Last equation given in the list of possible answers:
5 ( 1.5 + 1.5 + x ) = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to include in the total addition of miles ridden during the week:
a) 1.5 miles to the school
b) 1.5 miles from school back home
c) x miles for the evening ride
so for the miles ridden per day we have: "1.5 +1.5 + x"
Now, since per week she does 5 days like this, then we need to multiply the expression above by 5 in order to total the number of miles she rides weekly (25 miles)
5 ( 1.5 + 1.5 + x ) = 25
And we can use this equation to find the amount "x" that Rin rides in the evening.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that
.
Therefore,
.
F(x) = x² + x - 20 = x² + 5x - 4x - 20 = x(x + 5) - 4(x + 5) = (x + 5)(x - 4)
f(x) = 0 ⇔ (x + 5)(x - 4) = 0 ⇔ x + 5 = 0 or x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = -5 or x = 4
Answer: C. x = -5 and x = 4.
