Answer: Number of hours newer pump needed to drain is given by

7\dfrac{1}{5}\ hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of hours taken by two pumps = 4 hours

Work done by two pumps = \dfrac{1}{4}

Number of hours taken by older pump = 9 hours

Work done by older pump = \dfrac{1}{9}

According to question, work done by new pump would be

\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{9-4}{36}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{36}

So, Number of hours newer pump needed to drain is given by

\dfrac{36}{5}=7\dfrac{1}{5}\ hours

The absolute value of y is further from 0.

Explanation:
The absolute value of any number is a positive. If the value of y is greater than x, then y would be further. Let’s input a number as an example. Let’s say that the absolute value of y was 9 and the absolute value of x is 4 due to the y value being larger. 4 is closer to 0 compared to 9 so the absolute value of y is further from 0.
