Which is bigger, -7/12 or -5/9??

1 answer:

8 0

Make bottom number same
12=2*2*3
9=3*3
LCD=2*2*3*3=36

-7/12 times 3/3=-21/36
-5/9 times 4/4=-20/36

the farther a number is on the number line to the left, the bigger it is
-20/36 is closer to left

-5/9=-20/36

-5/9 is bigger

In the diagram, g ∥ h, m∠1 = (4x + 36)°, and m∠2 = (3x – 3)°. What is the measure of ∠3? 21° 60° 120° 159°

cricket20 [7]

M<2 = m<3
but
m<1 + m<2 = 180
4x + 36 + 3x – 3 = 180
7x + 33 = 180
7x = 147
x = 21

m<2 = 3x – 3
m<2 = 3(21) - 3
m<2 = 63 - 3
m< 2 = 60

m<3 = m<2 = 60

answer
60°

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, we would be starting from the center point and searching the area of a square since the distance in every direction would the same 7 mi. This 7-mile distance would be our radius in this scenario. We now need to use the formula for the Area of a circle to calculate the search area. This formula is the following

A = $\pi r^{2}$
