It is less than. Any negative number compared to a positive number will be less than.
Technically, everything we know was made up by our own minds. We thought of it all. We decided that the color of the sky would be called "blue" and not "doorknob". Education is a continuous cycle that never stops progressing.
I don't know what the "lowest y-intercept means" so if you can reiterate and clarify I'd appreciate it, but if you understand what you're looking for then I assume that a graph would be helpful. An online useful graphing site I like is desmos. Hope I helped.
The answer is d 3x3 is 9...9x3 equal 27
Answer:
It depends, see answer below
Step-by-step explanation:
By arithmetic, we refer to the elementary operations between numbers. You can build the integer, rational, real and complex number systems from the natural numbers, so it is enough to obtain arithmetic for natural numbers.
In the axiomatic formulation of natural numbers, you assume that there exists a non empty set N such that multiplication and addition are defined in N with the commutative, associative, distributive and modulus properties. If you take this approach, you need all of the above: Numbers exist, Multiplication, Addition.
A different approach is the following: assume the Peano axioms: The set of natural numbers exists, and it obeys an inductive structure (without going in further details, every natural number has a unique sucessor, and mathematical induction is valid). You can define addition and multiplication inductively, so in this case you only need to assume that numbers exist.
