What is the sign of the product (3)(−25)(7)(−24)? A. Positive, because the products (3)(−25) and (7)(−24) are negative, and the product of two negative numbers is positive
B. Positive, because the products (3)(−25) and (7)(−24) are positive, and the product of two positive numbers is positive
C. Negative, because the products (3)(−25) and (7)(−24) are negative, and the product of two negative numbers is negative
D. Negative, because the products (3)(−25) and (7)(−24) are positive, and the product of two positive numbers is negative

answer: the sun

explanation:

water cycle describes the evaporation of water from earth's surface, formation of clouds and precipitation water back onto the surface of earth. seventy percent of the earth is covered with water in the form of seas and oceans. the heat of the sun causes the evaporation of water from the surface of the ocean. the water vapors rise and condense to form water droplets. the collection of these water droplets form clouds which rain down again.

the evaporation of the oceans surface water as part of the water cycle is caused by the sun

let x and 400 - x be the two numbers.  

==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68 from the statement of the problem.  

< ==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68  

==> 340 - 0.05x = 332  

< ==> -0.05x = -8 ==> x = 160, the first number ==> 400 - x = 240, the second number.
