Anything times 0 is and always will be zero

The coefficients of x are different in the expressions, but the constant values are the same. Zero times any value is zero, so both expressions will be equal to –5.9. If Ryan tried any other number, he would see that the expressions are not equivalent.

Answer:

D - T-H is negative

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets go through what we know:

M is on the left side of 0, so M is negative.

A is also one the left side of 0, so A is negative.

T is on the right side of 0, so T is postive

H is also on the right side of 0, so H is postive

Lets go through each answer and see if it is accurate or not:

The sum of M and H is postive.

With what we know, M is negative and H is postive.

Looking at the graph, we can see that M is farther to the left than H is to the right.

So this means that M is a larger negative than H is postive, meaning when we add them together, the answer will be negative, not postive.

Next we have the answer to A divided by H is negative

We know A is negative, and M also negative

Remember, a negative divided or multiplied by a negative is postive.

This is not what our answer states, as it says it should be negative.

So next off, we have the product of H and A is postive.

Product means multipication.

A is negative and H is postive

Since it is multipication, and we know a negative and postive make another negative, this would make it incorrect

The answer states it must be postive, but this is negative.

Finally we have the answer as T-H is negative.

We see that T is postive, and H is postive.

T is less than H is, so when you subtract H from T, you would get a negative.

So D is the answer

Hope this helps!
