Answer:

Salamander trail is longer than great oaks trail.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the data from two different maps of the same park.

In the first map the length of great oaks trail is 4.5 cm

The scale from the park to the map is 36 mi to 6 cm ⇒

We can find the real length of great oaks trail writing the following equivalence :

\frac{36mi}{6cm}=\frac{x}{4.5cm}

Where x is the real length of great oaks trail ⇒

x=\frac{(36mi).(4.5cm)}{6cm}=27mi

We find that the real length of great oaks trail is 27 mi

In the second map the length of salamander trail is 3.5 cm

The scale from the park in the second map is 24 mi to 3 cm.

Again we can find the real length of salamander trail writing the equivalence :

\frac{24mi}{3cm}=\frac{y}{3.5cm}

Where y is the real length of salamander trail ⇒

y=\frac{(24mi).(3.5cm)}{3cm}=28mi

We find that the real length of salamander trail is 28 mi.

Therefore salamander trail is longer than great oaks trail.

What is the sign of the product (3) × (−3) × (−2) × (4)?
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Positive, because the products (3) × (−3) and (−2) × (4) are negative and the product of two negative numbers is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1 * -1 = -1, and -1 * -1 = 1, the product of opposite signs produces negative numbers while the product of same signs produces positive numbers. So the product of 1 * 1 * 1 * -1 = -1, while -1 * -1 * -1 * -1 = 1.

Answer:

-94%, -0.925, -9/10, -8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

-94% = -0.94

-8/9 = -0.89

-9/10 = -0.90

Since the values are negative the order is opposite then if they were all positive.
