Answer:

To make sure they remain effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fire extinguisher is a portable device used to extinguish a fire.

Handheld extinguishers are pressurised with nitrogen or carbon dioxide and can be used in the kitchen or garage.

Fire extinguishers controls the amount of pollution caused by smoke and burning.

Although they have no expiring date, they won't last forever. Extinguishers should work for 5 to 15 years, but fire extinguishers be routinely maintained to make sure they remain effective.

Answer: the answer would be To make sure they remain effective.

Step-by-step explanation:

It wouldn't be to make sure they are up to code because fire extinguishers do not use code, code is used in electronics. For the second option and the last option it would not be this because they could be trained in a practice instead of using the real thing.

Nitella [24]

l = 2w-3

P = 2(l+w)

substitute in for l

P = 2(2w-3 +w)

combine like terms

P = 2(3w-3)

P = 6w-6

P(w) = 6(w-1)

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (9,60 and (14,7)?
bija089 [108]

This is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), y2 being 12, y1 being 7, x2 being -39 and x1 being 26. So if you plug in the points it would be: (12-7)/(-39-26). This solved equals: -5/65 which simplified equals: -1/13

Quick algebra 1 question for 10 points!
bazaltina [42]

denote \: by \: s \: the \: cost \: of \: a \: sweatshirt \\ denote \: by \: t \: the \: cost \: of \: a \: t \: shirt

3t + 7s = 240.5 \\ 6t + 5s = 220

- 6t - 14s =  - 481 \\ 6t + 5s = 220

- 9s = -  261 \\ s =  \frac{ - 261}{ - 9}  = 29 \: dollars

3t + 7(29) = 240.5 \\

3t + 203 = 240.5

3t = 37.5

t = 12.5 dollars
