ANSER: Yes

EXPLANATION: The is one way for you to make a negative number greater than a positive number and that is by using absolute value. Absolute value is when you take the number and define the absolute value. So -4 would be just 4. In a regular equation -5 < 4 but using absolute value -5 becomes 5. Therefore there is one way for a negative number to be posotive.

ANSWER: No.

Explanation: It is impossible for a negative number to be greater than a positive number. All negatives are behind zero, therefore less than zero, on the number line, while all the positives are ahead of zero, meaning they're greater than zero. In conclusion, a negative number is ALWAYS less than a positive number.

The area of the triangle above is 21. What is the value of x ?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

area = ½×base×height

21 = ½(x+1)x

42 = (x+1)x

x² + x - 42 = 0

(x+7)(x-6) = 0

x = -7, 6

-7 is an extraneous solution, so x = 6
