Required diagram is attached below
Answer:
25 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Tremont Trail = 3 1/2 miles
Wildflower trail = 2 3/8 miles
Distance covered ; Tremont Trail and back : (3 1/2 * 2). = 7/2 * 2 = 14 /2 = 7 miles
Total distance covered by Bernie and Chloe before stopping for lunch /
(7 miles + 2 3/8 Miles) = 9 3/8 miles = 75/8 miles
Ricardo's distance = 2 2/3 * Bernie and Chloe's total distance
Ricardo's distance = 8/3 * 75/8 = 600 /24 = 25 miles

Answer: Option a.
Step-by-step explanation:
Make the denominator equal to zero and solve for x:
Factor the quadratic equation. Find two number whose sum is -1 and whose product is -2. Then:
Then, as you can see the value x=2 makes the denominator equal to zero and the division by zero does not exist. Therefore you can conclude that the function shown in the problem is not defined at x=2
The answer is the option a.
