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.

Answer:

<h2>58°</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the tangent function since we know the opposite and adjacent sides.

Tangent = opposite/adjacent

Tan(e) = 16/10

Tan(e) = 1.6

Use the inverse tangent function to find the angle.

Arctan (1.6) = 57.9946168

Rounding this we get: 58°

Which point is a solution to the linear equality y&lt;-1/2x+2
Effectus [21]

Answer:

There are many points that are solutions to the equation, but one of which would be (1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to tell if they are a solution, we use the values in the inequality and see if it results in a true statement.

y < -1/2x + 2

1 < -1/2(1) + 2

1 < -1/2 + 2

1 < 3/2 (This is a true statement)

Since it is a true statement, we know it is a solution.
