Answer:
The first one and the last one are true (Since −6 is 6 units to the left of 0, |−6|=6 and −6 is closer to zero on the number line than −7, so |−6|<|−7|.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute value is the distance to zero, and it is always positive. That means the positive and negative versions of a number have the same absolute value. That means the first one is true, and the second and third ones are false. For the last one, -6 is closer to zero, so that means it would be true (The absolute value of -6 is 6, and the absolute value of -7 is 7).
Nate's package is 8 kilograms. This is because, if there are 1,000 grams in 1 kilogram, 8,000/ 1,000= 8 Therefore, the mass of his package is 8 kilograms.

3 1/2 pound = 7/2 pounds.
We know that the dog eats 7/2 (3.5) pounds every 21 days since there are 7 days in a week and Mr.Z only buys dog food every 3 weeks.
Set up a proportion. <u>3.5 lb</u> = <u> x </u><u>
</u> 21 days 365 days
<u>
</u>Cross multiply and divide. 3.5 lb x 365 days = 1277.5 / 21 days = 60.83 lb
