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

Find the measurement indicated. Round your answers to the nearest tenth. Use Law of Sines​ or Cosines
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

5. 34°

6. 29.7

Step-by-step explanation:

5. Using sine law

25/sin(93) = 14/sin(C)

sin(C) = 0.5592325395

C = 34.00273934°

6. Using cosine law

AC² = 23.2² + 18.1² - 2(23.2)(18.1)cos(91)

AC² = 880.507229

AC = 29.67334206
