Answer:

C. -1 9/10, -1/2, 0.4, 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using a number line, we can see that negative numbers are to the left of '0' and positive numbers are to the right of '0'. To compare numbers for increasing order, we would start with the lowest number to the farthest left on the number line to the greatest number to the farthest right. Placing the following numbers on the number line, the furthest to the left is -1 9/10, then -1/2, followed by 0.4 and then the greatest, 3/5. You can also compare by converting them all into decimals:

-1 9/10 = -1.9

-1/2 = -0.5

0.4 = 0.4

3/5 = 0.6

Answer:

Part a) Rectangle

Part b) Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure N 1</em></u>

Part A) A cross section of the rectangular pyramid is cut with a plane parallel to the base. What is the name of the shape created by the cross section?

we know that

When a geometric plane slices any right pyramid so that the cut is parallel to the plane of the base, the cross section will have the same shape (but not the same size) as the base, So, in the case of a right rectangular pyramid, the cross section is a rectangle

Part b) If a cross section of the rectangular pyramid is cut perpendicular to the base, passing through the top vertex, what would be the shape of the resulting cross section?

we know that

Cross sections perpendicular to the base and through the vertex will be triangles

see the attached figure N 2 to better understand the problem

Brown eyes because most students have brown eyes. It would be less likely to get a student with blue or green eyes.

Order from least to greatest 5 1/2, 5.05, 5 5/9

Valentin [98]

5 1/5 = 5.50
5 5/9 = 5.555555
so the order from smallest to biggest is
5.05, 5 1/5, 5 5/9
