Answer:
the answer of the question is C because 1/2=.5
That would simplify to 32x^5+400x^4+200x^3+5000x^2+6250x+3125
You would do that because you have to write it repeatedly as (2x+5)(2x+5) and so on.
Swimmer a swims 100 meters, which is 100 1-meters, which is 100
(1 yards +3.37 inches) = 100 yards + 337 inches.
1 yard is 3 feet, so 100 yards are 300 feet.
100 in is 8.33 feet so
337 in is (337*8.33)/100=28.07 feet
Swimmer b swims 100 yards, which is 300 feet
Swimmer a swam 28.07 feet.
