A) 5 (2) (6.25) + 2.5 t less-than-or-equal-to 85
B) 5 (2) (6.25) + 2.5 t less-than 85
C) 5 (2) (6.25) + 2.5 t greater-than-or-equal-to 85
D) 5 (2) (6.25) + 2.5 t greater-than 85

Respuesta :

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

If I'm not mistaken, she wants to ride atleast 85 miles per week. If you add up all of the values from going to and from the school, you would get 62.5 miles. So for it to add up to 85 miles, she would have to atleast do 9 trips around the park.

These numbers I believe do not matter however, all you need to do is put in C for greater than or equal to 85.

Answer:

C) [tex]5(2)(6.25)+2.5t[/tex] ≥ 85

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]5(2)(6.25)+2.5t[/tex] ≥ 85

Jessamine wants to ride her bike at least 85 miles per week.

t must make the whole equation AT LEAST 85 miles. So t MUST be larger than or equal to 85.
