Answer:
C.(3|-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
ANSWER

EXPLANATION
We were told that the motorist travelled 250 miles on 11 gallons of gas. This implies that,

Now we want to find how far he could go on 16 gallons.

All other things being equal, the motorist should cover more than 250 miles with 16 gallons of gas.
Recall that: If more, less divides.
This implies that,


Therefore the correct answer is C.
If the discriminant, b² - 4ac is<u> positive</u>
<h3>How to complete the statement?</h3>
From the question, we have the following equation of discriminant
The discriminant (d) is calculated as
d = b² - 4ac
The solutions of a quadratic equation are dependent on the following conditions
- If d = 0, the quadratic equation has 1 real solution
- If d < 0, the quadratic equation has imaginary solutions
- If d > 0, the quadratic equation has 2 different real solutions
This means that "d > 0, the quadratic equation has 2 different real solutions" implies that the discriminant is positive
Hence, the complete statement is (b) positive
