Answer:
c. -1.5 < -0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
a. -1.5 > 0.5 . . . . false
b. -0.5 > 0 . . . . . false
c. -1.5 < -0.5 . . . TRUE
d. 1/2 > 0.5 . . . . false (these are the same number) 1/2 = 0.5
_____
In order on the number line from left to right, you will see ...
(left end) ... -1.5 ... -0.5 ... 0 ... 0.5 ... (right end)
__
The inequality relation appropriate to these is ...
(number on the left) < (number on the right)
Of course, this can be swapped around so you have ...
(number on the right) > (number on the left)
Answer:
I'm guessing the opposites are negative and positive so whenever you add two opposite numbers it will always be 0. The answer will always be 0.
For example:
-3 + 3 = 0
4 - 4 = 0
-15 + 15
Answer:
Equations 1 & 3 are correct.
Explanation:
Equation 2's actual answer is -8, and Equation 4's actual answer is positive 7.
First of all, the identity property of multiplication (which is what this is I'm assuming) is that the number 1 multiplied by any other number is that number itself. (An example would be 2 multiplied by 1, which would be two) So in this problem, this rule applies too, since 2/3 multiplied by 1 would be 2/3!
Hope this helped :)
