Answer:

(-1.8) is greater than (-2.1)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because when finding greater or than less with negatives you use what farther or closer to zero(0) For example our situation right here (-1.8) and (-2.1), -1.8 is closer to zero than (-2.1). If you were trying to find is was what was less than, than you would look at whats farther from 0(zero).

Unlike positives, with negatives, the larger a number is, the smaller it is.

Example :
4 > 2

-4 < -2

so -1.8 is GREATER then -2.1

here is a tip :
picture ur number line....plot -2.1....any number to the right is greater and any number to the left is less...and since -1.8 is to the right of -2.1, it is greater then -2.1

3. What are the coordinates of the center and the length of the radius of the circle whose equation is(x + 1)^2 + (y - 5)^2 = 16

hram777 [196]

Given data:

The given equationn of the circle is (x + 1)^2 + (y - 5)^2 = 16.

The standard equation of the circle is,

$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2$

The given equation can eb written as,

$(x-(-1))^2+(y-5)^2=4^2$

Compare the above equation with standard equation.

$\begin{gathered} a=-1 \\ b=5 \\ c=4 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the coordinate of centre is (-1, 5) and radius is 4.

Which equation fits the situation? Mikes test score was 20 points lower than marks if mark scored a 95 on the test which equatio

fredd [130]

Answer:

95 - 20 = t

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the facts. You know that Mike's test score is 20 points lower than Mark's. You know that Mark's score was 95.

If we are trying to find Mike's test score, t, the equation would be this:

The equation would be 95 - 20 = t

I hope this helps :)

The function f(x) = −x2 + 50x − 264 models the profit, in dollars, a yoga studio makes for selling monthly memberships, where x

Marina CMI [18]

The given function is $f(x) = -x^2 + 50x - 264$ . This is a quadratic function because the degree of the polynomial, the variable with the highest exponent, is 2.

All quadratic functions can be expressed in the form $f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c$ .
In your equation,
a = -1
b = 50
c = -264

The equation for the x-coordinate vertex of a quadratic function is $x = \frac{-b}{2a}$ .
Applying this to the given function,
$x = \frac{-(50)}{2(-1)} = \frac{50}{2} = 25$ .

Now plug the value of x into f(x) to find f(x) (aka the y-coordinate).
$f(x) = -x^2 + 50x - 264 \\
f(25) = -(25)^2 + 50(25) - 264 \\
f(25) = 361$

The vertex is (25, 361)

Part B
The x-intercept is where the graph crosses the x-axis. Therefore, f(x) (aka the y-coordinate) will be 0. So the x-intercept will be in the form of (x, 0).

To find the x-intercept, set f(x) = 0.
$0 = -x^2 + 50x - 264 \\
0 = (x-6)(x-44) \\
x = 6, x = 44$ .

Therefore the x-intercepts will be at (6, 0) and (44, 0)
