Answer:
The expression that is greater is a (b - c)
Step-by-step explanation:
- a < 0 and c > b, this means <u>(by the addition property)</u> that c - c > b - c⇒0 > b - c
so for the product <u>a(b - c) </u>we would have a multiplication of a negative number <em>a</em> and another negative number <em>(b - c)</em>. We know that the result of the <u>multiplication of two negative numbers is a positive number.</u>
Therefore, a (b - c) > 0
- a < 0 and c > b, this means <u>by the addition property</u> that c - b > b - b⇒ c - b > 0
so for <u>a(c - b)</u>, we have the negative number <em>a</em> multiplied by the positive number <em>(c - b). </em>We know that the result of the <u>multiplication of a negative number by a positive number is negative. </u>
<u>Therefore a (c - b) < 0</u>
Thus, the expression that is greater is the positive one which is a (b - c)
22.8 I think because you divide them?? Idk
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
:) Well, I dunno about anyone else but this question makes my head spin!
This is Pythagorean's Theorem, with one leg being 10 and the hypotenuse being 16. Using those values in the theorem looks like this:
and
and
so
Take the square root of both sides to find that b = 12.5
