Respuesta :
The answer is D because if you plug in 4 as t, 12+10 is greater than it equal to 22. But she can still go 5 times around and still be greater. The 10 is in the problem because it took 5 miles to get there and 5 miles to get back!
Answer:
The correct option is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that Elena plans to ride her bicycle 5 miles to a park and then ride several times around a loop in the park that is 3 miles long.
She wants to ride a total of at least 22 miles.
[tex]3t+10\geq 22[/tex]
Subtract 10 from both the sides.
[tex]3t\geq 22-10[/tex]
[tex]3t\geq 12[/tex]
Divide both the sides by 3.
[tex]\fraac{3t}{3}\geq \frac{12}{3}[/tex]
[tex]t\geq 4[/tex]
The value of t is 4 or more than 4. It means Elena need to ride around the loop 4 or more times.
Therefore the correct option is D.
