A because if you simplify the inequality you get m<11 The only answer which has values under 11 is A
Let's translate the verbal language to algebraic language.
She rides to and from school 5 days per week, 6.25 miles each route => 5*2*6.25 miles = 62.5 miles.
She rides additioanly around the park 2.5 miles for each trip t => 2.5*t = 2.5t
Total miles of her rides per week: 62.5 miles + 2.5t
She wants to ride minimum 85 miles => 62.5 + 2.5t ≥ 85
Then, the situation is represented by this inequality:
2.5t + 62.5 ≥ 85
You can develop it and get to several equivalent inequalities, for example:
2.5t ≥ 85 - 62.5
2.5t ≥ 22.5
t ≥ 9
Any of the four forms are equivalent and a valid answer.
