Answer:

At a combined speed of 6 in/min, it takes us 24 mins to clean the wall

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question did not provide the speed with which each student cleans, we can make assumptions. This is so that we can solve the question before us

Assuming student 1 cleans at a speed of 2 inches per minute, student 2 cleans at a speed of 2½ inches per minute & student 3 cleans at a speed of 1½ inches per minute.

Let's list the parameters we have:

Height of wall (h) = 12 ft, Speed (student 1) = 2 in/min, Speed (student 2) = 2½ in/min, Speed (student 3) = 1½ in/min

Speed of cleaning wall = Height of wall ÷ Time to clean wall

Time to clean wall (t) = Height of wall ÷ Speed of cleaning wall

since students 1, 2 and 3 are working together, we will add their speed together; v = (2 + 2½ + 1½) = 6 in/min

1 ft = 12 in

Time (t) = h ÷ v = (12 * 12) ÷ 6 = 144 ÷ 6

Time (t) = 24 mins

Pick the expression that matches this description:
Katen [24]

Option C is correct because it is a trinomial with a leading coefficient of 3 and a constant term of -5

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to pick the expression that matches this description:

A trinomial with a leading coefficient of 3 and a constant term of -5

First lets explain the terms:

Trinomial: a polynomial having 3 terms

Leading coefficient: The constant value of variable having highest power

Constant term: Having no variable and value cannot be changed.

Now using these definitions, we can choose the correct option

Option A is incorrect because the expression has 2 terms

Option B is incorrect because it is a trinomial but the leading coefficient is -5 and not 3 constant term is 3 and not -5.

Option C is correct because it is a trinomial with a leading coefficient of 3 and a constant term of -5

Option D is incorrect because it is a trinomial but the leading coefficient is 3 but constant term is 1 and not -5.

So, Option C is correct.

Find m of ZX<br> in circle P.<br><br> 70<br> 95<br> 155<br> 205
denis-greek [22]
The answer is C. 155

First find the measure of arc YZ.

The arc of WYZ is equal 180 degrees. So first add 25 to 85. Then subtract that to 180.

25+85=110

180-110=70.

Next add 70 to 85 since you want to find the measure of ZX.

70+85=155

So measure of ZX is equal to 155 degrees
