Let's say Alice is 4 feet tall and Bob is 6 feet tall. The ratio of their heights is the required Alice:Bob = 2:3. That means Bob is 3/2 = 1.5 times taller than Alice.
the rate of growth will be 1.16
This is the diference of 2 perfect squares. 4 is a perfect square, x^2 is a perfect square, and 25 is a perfect square. The pattern for this is (ax + b)(ax - b). Our a is 2 since 2*2 = 4, and our b is 5 since 5*5 = 25. So your factors are (2a+5)(2a-5), choice C.
