Step-by-step explanation:

The negative of a number may sometimes be greater than the number itself.

The negative of a negative number is positive which will give a greater number than the number itself. But the negative of a positive number is negative which is smaller than the number itself

Let us take a few examples

-(-1) = 1,    1>-1

-(1) = -1,    1>-1

Shalnov [3]
The answer is the first row.

Explanation:

8 * 10^7 = 80,000,000 -- 2 * 10^4 = 20,000

80,000,000 divided by 20,000 = 4,000, so it is 4,000 times larger

Therefore, the first answer is correct.

Hope I helped and good luck!

When you use sine and cosine to solve the value of 0 for the two triangles below, you obtain the same value.
Vikki [24]

Answer:The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios. Three common trigonometric ratios are the sine (sin), cosine (cos), and tangent (tan).

Step-by-step explanation:

In these definitions, the terms opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse refer to the lengths of the sides.

For example, if we want to recall the definition of the sine, we reference S\blueD{O}\purpleC{H}SOHS, start color #11accd, O, end color #11accd, start color #aa87ff, H, end color #aa87ff, since sine starts with the letter S. The \text{\blueD{O}}Ostart text, start color #11accd, O, end color #11accd, end text and the \text{\purpleC{H}}Hstart text, start color #aa87ff, H, end color #aa87ff, end text help us to remember that sine is \text{\blueD{opposite}}oppositestart text, start color #11accd, o, p, p, o, s, i, t, e, end color #11accd, end text over \text{\purpleC{hypotenuse}}hypotenusestart text, start color #aa87ff, h, y, p, o, t, e, n, u, s, e, end color #aa87ff, end text!

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

8 pencils.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a common, GCF question and the question becomes, what number is the GCF of 40 and 24.

40= 2x2x2x5

24=2x2x2x3

Both share 2x2x2, which is 8 so the largest number of pencils in each pack is 8.
