Answer:

a. a is bigger than -a

b. a is equal to -a

c. a is less than -a

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say a = 2

If a > 0, 2 > -2

If a = 0, 0 = -0; -0 and 0 are the same

Let's say a = -1

If a < 0, -1 ? -(-1)

-1 < 1

3 1/2 - 1 1/3 x x= 1

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The value of x for the given expression is $\frac{15}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

<u>The expression is written </u>

3 $\dfrac{1}{2}$ - 1 $\dfrac{1}{3}$ × x = 1

Or, 1 $\dfrac{1}{3}$ × x = 3 $\dfrac{1}{2}$ - 1

Or, $\frac{(1\times 3) + 1}{3}$ × x = $\frac{(3\times 2) + 1}{2}$ - 1

Or, $\dfrac{4}{3}$ × x = $\dfrac{7}{2}$ - 1

Or, $\dfrac{4}{3}$ × x = $\dfrac{7-2}{2}$

Or, $\dfrac{4}{3}$ × x = $\dfrac{5}{2}$

∴ x = $\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{4}{3}}$

Or, x = $\frac{5\times 3}{2\times 4}$

I.e x = $\frac{15}{8}$

So, The value of x = $\frac{15}{8}$

Hence The value of x for the given expression is $\frac{15}{8}$ Answer
