Hello There!
The temperature at 10 am in the morning was 1 degree below zero.
First, we know at 8 am that the temperature was 3 degrees below zero so that number is -3 and it’s our starting number.
Next, it says an hour later the temperature has gone up 6 degrees so we have -3 + 6 and we get a sum of positive 3.
Finally, at 9 am the temperature dropped again but this time 4 degrees so 3 - 4 = -1
The temperature at 10 am in the morning was 1 degree below zero.
(2, -5) is the mid point
(3, 6) is (2+1, -5+11) is an end point
therefor the other end point should be (2-1, -5-11) = (1, -16)
You could visualise this better if you draw it
Hope this helps, I don't really know a better way to explain it, sorry =P
Your answer will be D and E
Before you do the steps, change the fractions given to improper fractions:
2 2/3 = 8/3
3 1/6 = 19/6
Now, I think the first step they want you to write is:
8/3 (divided by) 19/6
When you divide two fractions, it's the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. (A reciprocal is a fancy way of saying you flip the fraction)
So the next step will look like this:
8/3 x 6/19
With this setup, you can cross simplify the fractions so that they look like this:
8/1 x 2/19
When you multiply this, you get 16/19
Let me know if you have any questions!
Answer: -8, -3, 2, |-6|
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 , -8, |-6|, 2
|-6|=6
6>2
-3>-8 since a negative number closer to 0 is the greater number.
Order: -8, -3, 2, 6 ==> -8, -3, 2, |-6|
