Sure! Let's do this in order.
First, we can simplify the left side with the distributive property, getting us
8c-14
Next, we can simplify the right side with the distributive property, getting us
8c-8-6.
That gives us 8c-14<8c-8-6.
We can subtract 8c from both sides, getting us
-14<-8-6
Simplify the right side to get
-14<-14
This inequality has no solution. This is because the variable is gone, and the remaining equation isn't true.
Certainly negative number is smaller than a positive number
So the order is 0.8 , -0.4
Here 0.8 is the greatest while -0.4 is least

Answer: C. p(x) = -5x-x^2</h3>
This is the same as p(x) = -x^2-5x
The degree is the largest exponent to determine what kind of polynomial we're dealing with.
For choice C, the degree is 2, so we have a quadratic here.
-----------
Extra info:
- Choice A is cubic because the largest exponent is 3 (degree = 3)
- Choice B is a quartic of degree 4
- Choice D is the same story as choice B

Answer:</h3>
19.5 inches
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Let r represent the length of one of the sections of rope (in inches). Then the total length of the original rope is ...
... 8r +28.9 = 184.9
... 8r = 156 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 28.9; next, divide by 8
... 156/8 = r = 19.5
The length of each of the sections is 19.5 inches.
