6 0

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

A piece of string is 144 inches long. Isabel wants to cut it into 2 pieces so that one piece is five times as long as the other.
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

  • 24 inches
  • 120 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths can be found by considering their ratio:

  short : long = 1 : 5

The sum of the ratio units is 1+5 = 6, and the sum of the lengths is 144 inches. That means each "ratio unit" stands for (144 in)/6 = 24 inches of length.

The lengths are ...

  1 : 5 = 24 in : 120 in

The pieces are 24 inches and 120 inches in length.

__

Equivalently, you can let s represent the shorter length. Then 5s is the longer one, and their total is ...

  s +5s = 144

  s = 144/6 = 24

  5s = 5(24) = 120

The lengths are 24 inches and 120 inches.
