r-1

Step-by-step explanation:

(-r-5)-(-2r-4) Or (-r-5)-(-2r-4)

-r+-5+2r+4. -r-5+2r+4

r-1 r-1

You bring down the first Parentheses Then have to multiply the (implied 1) -1•-2=2 and -1•-4=4 and do the math regularly

d. 8

step-by-step explanation:

the given radical expression is:

we can rewrite this as:

we express as square numbers to get;

the exponents will now cancel out to give.

the correct answer is d

1,407.5 hours

step-by-step explanation:

we first convert all the time to hours and then sum them up.

there are 24 hours in 1 day, in 58 days, there are 24 x 58 = 1,392 hours.

there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, thus, 30 minutes will be equivalent to 30 / 60 = 0.5 hours.

therefore, the number of hours it will take mercury to complete a full rotation is 1,392 + 15 + 0.5 = 1,407.5 hours
