City R has a temperature of -2 degrees. City S has a temperature of -6 degrees. Write an inequality to compare the temperatures
of the two cities.
1 answer:
Answer:
-2 > -6 . . . or . . . R > S
Step-by-step explanation:
If you plot the temperatures of the two cities on a number line, you see that the temperature for City R is plotted to the right of the temperature for City S. This means the temperature of City S is less than that of City R.
If your inequality relates cities:
S < R or R > S
If your inequality relates temperatures:
-6 < -2 or -2 > -6
