Answer 1

Answer:

Mei is correct because -9 is to the left of -3 on the number line.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because -9 is LESS than -3, when you add or subtract using negative numbers, such as 7-9, you get -2. However when you subtract 7-13, you get -6. Because you subtracted a greater number from 7, your answer is -6 is LESS than -2. This is the same with inequalities, greater negative numbers will always be smaller and smaller negative numbers will always be greater.

Hope this helps!
