The car traveled 42.5 miles per gallon of gas. If the gas tank in the car could hold 16.5 gallons, how far can the car travel on one tank of gas? (Don't round answer) Please, help I am really confused!

option (a)

step-by-step explanation:

step 1:   take 2 number whose product equal to 25..

and sum of those two number are -10

step: 2 for example here if we take 5,5 are the number,,

5*5=25

and

5+5=10

but we need -10

so if we take   -5,-5

so -5*-5=25

and -5+(-5)=-10

s0

come the equation

replace -10x by these number

like -5x -5x+25

take common

x(x-5)-5(x-5)=0

(x-5)(x-5)=0

the answer will be -6x^2 +46
