The answer is B.

Negative numbers are to the far left if you were using a number line, so -1 to the 3rd power is -1. Everything else is positive. 1/4 is the same as 0.25 which is less than positive 1, positive 8.8 is next and the last would be -5 to the 2nd power which is 25.

Answer:

$\sf\Huge\boxed{C.40}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

Remember: sum of interior angles of a triangle = 180

so to find x we use this equation

180 = 90 + 7x + 5 + 9x + 5 ( the little square in the triangle indicates that the angle is a right angle. right angles have a measure of 90 so that's where the 90 came from.)

now we solve for x

step 1 combine like terms

90 + 5 + 5 = 100

7x + 9x = 16x

now we have 180 = 16x + 100

step 2 subtract 100 from each side

180 - 100 = 80

100 - 100 cancels out

now we have 80 = 16x

step 3 divide each side by 16

80/16 = 5

16x/16=x

we're left with x = 5

Finally we plug in 5 into x for angle a

7(5)+5

7*5=35

35+5=40

so we can conclude that the measure of angle A is 40 degrees

Pump 1 can empty a pool in 9 hours while Pump 2 can empty the same pool in 12 hours. If the two pumps worked together, how long

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

About 5 hr 10 min

Step-by-step explanation:

rate 1 = 1 pool / 9 hrs rate 2 = 1 pool / 12 hours

now find the time with both rates combined

1 pool / ( 1/9 + 1/12) = 1/ (7/36) = 36/7 hr = 5 1/7 hr = 5 hr 8.6 min
