Answer:
We multiplied by a negative number (-8)
We divided by a negative number (-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplying or dividing both sides of an equation by a negative number changes the inequality of the equation, because it changes the sign of each side of the equation
I think it means you have to find the area of both shapes and then compare them to see if Liam is correct if he is not correct say why. Hope this helps :)
First, let's find a common denominator to more easily compare the fractions.
12 will work just fine.
5/6 becomes 10/12, because 6x2=12, and 5x2=10
1/4 becomes 3/12, because 4x3=12, and 1x3=3
2/3 becomes 8/12, because 3x4=12, and 2x4=8
Now, we add them together, two at a time, to find the pieces that will make a length at least one yard, and closest to one yard.
10/12+3/12=13/12 This is 1/12 more than 1 yard.
10/12+8/12=18/12 This is 6/12 more than 1 yard.
8/12+3/12=11/12 This is 1/12 less than 1 yard.
The two pieces that will make a length of at least 1 yard, and are closest to 1 yard are the 5/6 (10/12) yard and 1/4 (3/12) yard pieces.
If Carl uses the two shortest pieces, the 1/4 (3/12) yard and 2/3 (8/12) yard pieces, he will need 1/12 more cable.
3/12+8/12=11/12
12/12-11/12=1/12
