Answer:

Please mark me brainliest and I hoped this helped!

She should ask her neighbor to help her.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use equations to help us figure out this answer.

8x + 15 = y

10x = y

If she has a 3 hour job, we can use 3 instead of x.

8(3) + 15 = y

24 + 15 = y

30 = y for the landscaping service

10(3) = y

30 = y for a neighbors help

It will cost her 9 dollars less, so she should go with the neighbor.

What is the circumference of a circle with a 7 foot diameter
irinina [24]
To do this, we have to multiply the 7 feet diameter by pi to get the circumference because the formula for circumference is C =  \pi *d, or circumference = pi times diameter. 7 x 3.14 (pi rounded) = 21.98

Answer: 21.98 feet

Simplify (2a^-3b^2)^3<br><br> 6b^6/ a9<br> 8b^6/ a^9<br> 6b^5<br> 8b
LenaWriter [7]
I'm going to assume that you accidentally missed a set of parentheses and that the expression is (2a^{-3} b^{2})^3
Raise 2, a^{-3}, and b^2 to the third power:
2^3(a^{-3})^3(b^2)^3
When a variable raised to a power is raised to another power, the exponents are multiplied:
8a^{-9}b^{6}
Negative powers are the positive power in the denominator:
\frac{8b^6}{a^{9}}
Therefore, the answer is the second option.
