It’s 28 divided by 7 x 15 -13
How do I know ? I’m in high school and I just worked it out !!
The expressions equivalent to -0.5(1.7+1.7) are -0.5(1.7) - 0.5(1.7)
and 2(-0.5(1.7))
<h3>Distributive law of expansion</h3>
Given the expression below;
-0.5 (1.7 + 1.7)
According to the distributive law;
A(B+C) = AB + AC
Expand
-0.5(1.7) + (-0.5)(1.7)
-0.5(1.7) - 0.5(1.7)
2(-0.5(1.7))
Hence the expressions equivalent to -0.5(1.7+1.7) are -0.5(1.7) - 0.5(1.7)
and 2(-0.5(1.7))

Answer:
It would take the newer pump 4.5 hours to drain the pool
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's investigate first what is the fraction of the job done in the unit of time (hour in this case) by each pump if the work individually:
older pump: if it takes it 9 hours to complete the job, it does of the job in one hour.
newer pump: we don't know how long it takes (this is our unknown) so we call it "x hours". Therefore, in the unit of time (in one hour) it would have completed of the total job.
both pumps together: since it takes both 3 hours to complete the job, in one hour they do of the job.
Now, we can write the following equation about fractions of the job done:
<em>The fraction of the job done by the older pump plus the fraction of the job done by the newer pump in one hour should total the fraction of the job done when they work together.</em> That is in mathematical terms:
and solving for x:
Given :
Xinran walks 3 mi/h uphill, 4 mi/h on flat land and 5 mi/h downhill.
To Find :
If he walks one mile uphill, then one mile on flat land and then returns by the same route to his starting point, how many minutes does he walk.
Solution :
Time taken to walk one mile uphill is :
Time taken to walk two mile on flat land( one on going and one or returning ) is :
Time taken to walk one mile downhill is :
Total time taken :
Therefore, time taken un 62 minutes.
