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
Zinc = 7/18
Divide 4.9 by 7 = 0.7
Multiply by 18 = 12.6
The answer is 12.6 lbs of alloy. Sorry if I'm wrong
You need to use Pythagoras’ Theorem.
A² + B² = c² and c is the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.
The height of the tower (5 feet) is A and the distance from the end of the cable and the base of the tower (12 feet) is B. The length of ONE cable is c. So:
A² + B² = c²
5² + 12² = c²
25 + 144 = c²
169 = c²
13 = c. This is the length of one cable.
3 x 13 = 39 therefore the total length of the cables is 39 feet.

X = 70 and y = 35, I hope this helps
