<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 value of X in the figure ABCD witch is a rhombus
NeX [460]

Answer:

  x = 10°

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rhombus divide the figure into congruent right triangles. That means the two marked acute angles are complementary.

__

<h3>solve for x</h3>

Complementary angles total 90°, so the relation we can use to find x is ...

  (3x -13) +(8x -7) = 90

  11x = 110 . . . . . . . . . add 20

  x = 10 . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

The value of x is 10°.
