In January. The temperature in Fargo, North Dakota is -2 F. On the same day, the temperature in Cheyenne, Wyoming was 1 F. Write

zaharov [31]

Answer:

(a) $1 > -2$ or $-2 < 1$

(b) $2 > 1$ or $1 < 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$N = -2F$ --- North Dakota

$C = 1F$ --- Cheyenne, Wyoming

Solving (a): Inequality to compare both temperatures

From the given temperatures, we can conclude that:

$C > N$ or $N < C$

Because

$1 > -2$ i.e. 1 is greater than -2

$-2 < 1$ i.e. -2 is less than 1

Solving (b): Inequality to compare the absolute values of the temperatures

We have:

$N = -2F$

$C = 1F$

The absolute values are:

$|N| = |-2|$

$|N| =2$

$|C| = |1|$

$|C| = 1$

By comparison:

$|N| > |C|$ or $|C| < |N|$

Because

$2 > 1$ i.e. 2 is greater than 1

$1 < 2$ i.e. 1 is less than 2
