Answer:

A) 20.82 > 20.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Hopefully, your issue is with the symbols (< vs >) rather than actually determining which number is larger or smaller.

The wide-open end of the symbol (the left side, in the case of >) indicates the larger (more positive) number.

So, the meanings of the symbols are ...

> — "is greater than"

< — "is less than"

The only true statement of those listed is ...

20.82 is greater than 20.55, or 20.82 > 20.55 . . . . selection A

_____

When writing number comparisons, I like to use the < symbol, because it puts the numbers in number-line order. That is, the smaller (or more negative) number is on the left, just as it is on a number line.

You trade the places of the numbers when changing the symbol. For example, answer choice A could be rewritten as ...

20.55 < 20.82

You know that 20.55 is to the left of 20.82 on the number line, so you know this statement is true.

Please help me! i really need help​
deff fn [24]

Answer:

24.3

Step-by-step explanation:

because each side is the same. one has 12 inch and the other is 9. So you subtract 9 from 12 and get 3. Then you have to find out what the other mesurment is for the bigger shape, which is 2.7 because 32/12=2.66666, so u round and get 2.7 . so theen you multiply 9 and 2.7 and get 24.3! Hope this helps.

Is the point (3, 11) a solution for the linear equation 1/3x + y = 12? Explain.
Brut [27]

Answer:

Yes, because when the values are substituted in, the equation becomes a true statement

Step-by-step explanation:

plug in the values for x and y and see if the equation makes sense

x=3

y=11

1/3(3)+11=12

1+11=12

12=12

Since the above equation is true, the point is a solution for the linear equation.
