20. A biologist studied the populations of geckos and salamanders at Huntington Beach State Park over
a five year period. The biologist modeled the populations, in thousands, with the following polynomials
where x is time, in years.
Geckos: 9.7 x 2 - 0.8x + 2.3
Salamanders: -1.1 x2 + 7.7 x + 5.4
Which of the following polynomials models the total number of geckos and salamanders at Huntington Beach State Park?
