The temperature when I went to the bus stop in the morning felt like it was -3°, sadly it was only -5° only two degrees warmer, which means it is still freezing

Example with temperature:

The temperature -3 degrees is warmer than -5 degrees. This applies to celsius or fahrenheit. You might also write "negative 3 degrees" as "3 degrees below zero"; the same applies for -5. The absolute difference between the two temperatures is 2 degrees.

=================================================

Example with money:

If your bank balance is -3 dollars and your friend's bank balance is -5 dollars, then your friend owes more money to the bank (s/he owes $2 more than you do).

Negative balances mean you are in debt. Another way to look at this is to consider you want to buy an item worth $10 but you only have $7. If the store owner lends you the difference, which you pay back later, then 7-10 = -3 is the amount of money on your balance sheet indicating you are in debt $3. The order of subtraction is important. Saying 10-7 = 3 shows a positive bank balance and you wouldn't be in debt (and still have $3 in your pocket).

=================================================

In either example, the value -3 is to the right of -5 on the number line so we would write the inequality -3 > -5 to say that -3 is larger than -5. Have a look at the image attached below.

So the first part is splitting the rectangle from the triangle so the area for the rectangle is 1440 (40 x 36) and the area for the triangle is 120 ((6x40)/ 2)

when you add them up the equal 1560 (1440 + 120)
