Answer: -4
Reasoning: so first you need to subtract the 7 from the 9 to get -2. Then you square it to get 4 because a negative 2 times -2 is 4. Then you multiply the 4 by the 2 to get 8. You can simplify the -10/5 to -1/2 and multiply that by the 8 to get -8/2 which simplified out to -4.
I hope that helps.

Answer: Choice D. 4^2+5^2 = x^2</h3>
See note at the bottom
========================================================
The entire building is 20 feet. Fifteen feet of that is from the ground to the first landing of the stairs or fire escape. So 20-15 = 5 feet represents the height of the second set of stairs (leading to the roof of the building)
The base of the triangle is 4 feet as shown in the diagram. The height is 5 feet as found in the prior paragraph. Use the pythagorean theorem to say
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4^2 + 5^2 = x^2
Note: If you meant to write 4^2+5^2 = x^2 for choice D, then that would be the answer. Otherwise, there is a typo somewhere.
The answer 280,000 because 4 is closer to 0
P - q i believe because
p = total average
q = average of ac
x = average of bd
p - q = x
You need to have the common denominator and once you do see how many times the 1/6cup will go into the 7/8cup which is 5
