That would depend...

-4 / -2 = 2........4 / 2 = 2 <== if the signs are the same
but
4 / -2 = -2.......-4 / 2 = -2 <== if the signs are different

 So basically, if the signs are the same, the result is positive and if the signs are different, the result is negative

Y > -5 is the correct answer.

An open point represents > or <.

3 Questions Math! HELP!!!
Sveta_85 [38]
1) Since the larger number is a negative, you’re going to get a negative solution for number one. An easy way to do the math is to ignore the negative sign in (-116) For a moment. And subtract 56 from it.
116 - 56 = 60. Don’t forget to place the negative sign we pushed to this side before the solution. The answer is -60.

2) We do the same thing we did in number one, but with new numbers. The answer in total is -178.

3. As stated, we do the same thing we did in number one. Just because there’s a decimal doesn’t change much. And your answer would be -1.1

2) Larger triangle is twice as large as the smaller one so x is 16
3) 16/12.8= 1.25 (This is the scale factor)
for y: 10/1.25=8
for x: 30/1.25=16
4) 8/6.4=1.25 (Scale factor)
for y: 14/1.25=11.2
for x: 15/1.25= 12
5) 22.5/9= 2.5 (scale factor)
for x: 12x2.5=30
for y: 35/2.5= 14
6) No because the scale factor is 2 but 14/8 does not equal to 2
