The correct option is A which is Yixing should clean out the kennels, and Olivia should move the food bags.

<h3>What is an expression?</h3>

Numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping can all be represented by mathematical symbols, which can also be used to indicate the logical syntax's order of operations and other features.

All the parts will be solved below:-

a. Olivia has an absolute advantage as she takes less time for completing both the tasks

b. Olivia's opportunity cost of cleaning a kennel is

= 6 ÷ 6

= 1 bag of food moved.

c. Olivia's opportunity cost of moving one bag of food is

= 6 ÷ 6

= 1 kennel cleaned

d. Yixing's opportunity cost of cleaning a kennel is

= 10 ÷ 12

= 0.83 bags of food moved.

e. Yixing's opportunity cost of moving one bag of food is

= 12 ÷ 10

= 1.2 kennels cleaned

f. From the above calculations, we can see that the opportunity cost of kennel cleaning would be less sin Yixing so here Yixing should have a comparative advantage and Olivia should have moved the food bags

The complete question is given below:-

Olivia and Yixing are volunteering at a cat rescue shelter. The shelter supervisor asks them to clean out kennels and haul bags of cat food from the donation area into storage.

For integers a, b and k, we know that a &gt;12, b &gt; 20 and a &lt; b. If b=7k, what is the value of k ?
Doss [256]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

For integers a, b and k, we know that a > 12, b < 20 and a < b. If b=7k, what is the value of k ?

Answer: the value of k = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

a > 12

b < 20

a < b

If b = 7k

Now if k = 1      {b = 7k = 7}

b would be equal to 7 but b has to be greater than 20

IT CANT BE

if k = 2        { b = 7k = 14}

b would be equal to 14, a is greater than 12, b has to be less than b; 14 < 20,

a has to be less than than b ( 12 < 14 )

IT IS

if k = 3      {b = 7k = 21}  

b would be equal to 21, so b is greater than 20 and a is less than 21

IT CANT BE

Therefore the value of k = 2

Simplifique a expressão 10ny-10x+10ny+10y
IRISSAK [1]

Responder:

10 (2ny- (x-y))

Explicación paso a paso:

Dada la expresión 10ny-10x + 10ny + 10y, para simplificar la expresión, se deben seguir los siguientes pasos;

Paso 1; Separa la expresión en términos similares

= 10ny-10x + 10ny + 10y

= (10ny + 10ny) - (10x + 10y)

Paso 2: Factoriza los valores comunes en ambos paréntesis

10ny (1 + 1) - 10 (x-y)

= 10ny (2) - 10 (x-y)

= 20ny - 10 (x-y)

Factoriza nuestro valor común en ambos términos:

= 10 (2ny- (x-y))
