The sixth grade runs a bake sale for 55 hours and makes $170.
So in one hour, they made 170/55 = 3.09 dollars.
Rate: $3.09/h

The seventh grade sets up a dunking booth for 44 hours and makes $112.
So in one hour, they made 112/44 = 2.54 dollars.
Rate: $2.54/h

The eight grade has a car wash and makes $192 in 66 hours.
So in one hour, they made 192/66 = 2.90 dollars.
Rate $2.90/h

3.09 > 2.90 > 2.54
So R(6th) > R(8th) > R(7th)

Which means that the sixth grade has the highest rate for raising money.

Hope this helps! :)

Order of symmetry = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we will define rotational symmetry.

Rotational symmetry is when a shape looks the same after some rotation or less than one rotation.

The order of rotational symmetry is how many times it matches the original shape during the rotation.

The given shape, when rotated will only have the shape like original shape after one complete rotation so the order of symmetry is one ..

An account earns simple interest.<br><br> $5200 at 7.36% for 54 months
vovikov84 [41]
A = P(1 +rt)  where A is the total amount(principal and interest), r is the rate, and t is the time invested.

A = 5200[1 + .0736(4.5)]
A = 6922.24

note we had to change the rate to a decimal by dividing by 100 
Also 54 months is equal to 4.5 years...you enter time in years.

never [62]

Answer: The blue whale's weight is 150 times heavier than the narwhal's weight.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Weight of Blue whale = 3\times10^5\text{ pounds}

Weight of Narwhal = 2\times10^3\text{ pounds}

Number of times blue whale's weight  is heavier than the narwhal's weight = =\dfrac{\text{Weight of Blue whale}}{\text{Weight of Narwhal }}

=\dfrac{3\times10^5}{2\times10^3}\\\\=1.5\times10^{5-3}\ \ \ [\dfrac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}]\\\\=1.5\times10^2\\\\=1.5\times100=150

Hence, the blue whale's weight is 150 times heavier than the narwhal's weight.
