Answer: 4 minutes</h3>
============================================================
Explanation:
Let's say that this tub is 72 gallons. I picked this number since 12*6 = 72. You can pick any number you want, but I picked this number so we end up with whole number results as shown below.
Tap X can fill the 72 gallon tub in 12 minutes. Its rate is 72/12 = 6 gallons per minute. Tap Y has a rate of 12 gallons per minute because 72/6 = 12.
Add the two unit rates: 6+12 = 18
If the two taps are opened at the same time, then they will work at a rate of 18 gallons per minute.
Let x be the number of minutes. The expression 18x represents how much of the tub is full after x minutes. Set this equal to the 72 we started with earlier and solve for x.
18x = 72
x = 72/18
x = 4
It will take 4 minutes if both taps are running at the same time.
Answer: p=7/2=3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
-4p+9=-5
Subtract 9 on both sides
-4p+9-9=-5-9
-4p=-14
Divide -4 on both sides
-4p/-4=-14/-4
p=7/2=3.5
Hope this helps!! :)

Easiest way to do this is to turn them all to decimals
√5= 2.23
2.5= 2.5
√9/4= 1.5
5/3= 1.66
order least to greatest:
1.5
1.66
2.23
2.5
