That’s as low as it goes So that’s ur answer
14/37
When evaluating, you must combine like terms first, so subtract 4 from 1/2 then multiply that number by -7/4, this will give you the value of x.
-- The filler pipe can fill 1/6 of the pool every hour.
-- The drainer pipe can drain 1/10 of the pool every hour.
-- When they're filling and draining at the same time, the filler pipe
will win eventually, because it finishes more of the pool in an hour
than what the drain pipe can finish in an hour.
-- When they're filling and draining at the same time, then every hour,
1/6 of the pool fills and 1/10 of it empties. The difference is (1/6) - (1/10).
To do that subtraction, we need a common denominator.
The smallest denominator that works is 30.
1/6 = 5/30
1/10 = 3/30 .
So in every hour, 5/30 of the pool fills, and 3/30 of the pool empties.
The result of both at the same time is that 2/30 = 1/15 fills each hour.
If nobody notices what's going on and closes the drain pipe, it will take
<em><u>15 hours</u></em> to fill the pool.
If the drain pipe had <em><u>not</u></em> been open, the filler pipe alone could have filled
the pool <em><u>2-1/2 times</u></em> in that same 15 hours. With both pipes open,
1-1/2 pool's worth of water went straight down the drain during that time,
and it was wasted.
I would say that the school should take the cost of 1-1/2 poolsworth out
of Ms. Charles' pay at the rate of $5 a week. I would, but that would
guarantee her more job security than she deserves after pulling a stunt
like that.
I hope this did not take place in California.

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem, it's important that we look at the tiles and the the signs that are in front of them. The top row of tiles represents our first expression and the bottom row of tiles represents our second equation.
The two large tiles are positive so they are going to be positive in our equation.
(x² ) - (-x² )
The four blue rectangle tiles are also positive, so they are going to be positive in our equation. The two red rectangle tiles are negative, so they are going to be negative in out equation.
(x² + 4x) - (-x² + 2x)
The two red square tiles are negative, so they are going to be negative in our equation. The four blue square tiles are positive, so they are going to be positive in our equation.
(x² + 4x - 2) - (-x² + 2x - 4)
So, your answer is going to be letter choice C.
