what evidence does lola provide to support her claim? select two options.

a college degree is necessary in today's world.
employers require a college degree for most jobs.
every high school student is expected to go to college.
teenagers resent the pressure placed on them to go to college.
employers want new hires to have skills and traits acquired in college.

From the given passage, it can be inferred that the following evidence Lola provides to support her claim,

Explanation :

The passage explains that all teenagers are required to go to college because it is essential to have a job. It certifies that the job aspirant has undergone the process of acquiring skills required to own the job.  

Such skills are part and parcel of college life and are best learned there. They help the job aspirant to have a successful job career.

Other options:

So, we can conclude that the first and the fifth options are correct.

B.Employers require a college degree for most jobs.

E.Employers want new hires to have skills and traits acquired in college.

Explanation:

in the problem you wrote said that the taxi charges $0.070 per mile(which would be 7 cents per mile), but then in your suggested equation you have it as $0.70 per mile (which is 70 cents per mile).

the latter seems more realistic, so i will assume that the taxi costs $5.00 and charges $0.70 per mile with tolls costing an additional $3.50. and it asks you to find how far you can travel on $36.50.

let x the number of miles traveled. since the taxi charges $0.70 per mile, multiplying this by the miles traveled (x) will yield the cost of the taxi ride as far as how far it took you. then adding this amount to the cost of the taxi ($5.00) and the additional cost for the tolls ($3.50) will give you the total cost of the taxi ride ($36.50)

that is,

            (0.70)x + 5.00 + 3.50 = 36.50

adding the like terms on the left-hand side of this equation, we arrive at the following:

            (0.70)x + 8.50 = 36.50

subtracting 8.50 from both sides of the equation, we get:

            (0.70)x = 28.00

to solve for x, divide both sides of the equation above by the coefficient of x (that being, 0.70):

            x = 40

thus, you can travel up to 40 miles on $36.50

what passage could you provide the passage.
