Answer:

<h2><em><u>-2 is greater than -2.5</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

B is wrong. This is because when you look on the number like you can see that the option for 1.5 is greater than one is false. This is because 1.5 is ahead of the 1 on the number line.

C is wrong. This is because the number 1 is greater than -1.5. The number one is ahead of the number -1.5.

D is wrong. D is wrong because when a smaller number is negative then it is bigger than a larger number that is negative. So -1.5 is smaller than -0.5.

<em><u>So the answer is A. -2 is greater than -2.5. It can be proved because of the rule written that a smaller number is negative then it is bigger than a larger number that is negative. So -2.5 is smaller than -2. And the reciprocal is true. -2 is larger than -2.5.</u></em>

Hope this helped,

Kavitha

A boat can travel 20 miles on 10 gallons of gasoline. How much gasoline will it need to go 34 miles?​
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

20 divided by 10 is 2 so for every 2 miles it travels it uses 1 gallon of gasoline. 20 + 14 is 34 so you divide 14 by 2 to get 7. then you add 10+7 to get 17. it will take 17 gallons of gasoline to go 34 miles

Write an equivalent expression for (m+5)(m-3)
AleksandrR [38]

Solve using the foil method (first, outside, inside, last).

(m + 5)(m - 3)

Your steps using foil should look like:

  1. m * m
  2. m * -3
  3. 5 * m
  4. 5 * -3

After multiplying, rewrite your expression.

m² - 3m + 5m - 15

The last step to simplifying this expression is to combine like terms, which are -3m + 5m.

<h3>m² + 2m - 15</h3>
