Because greater means best, and you have to start with the best!

Just kidding, the real answer is that it makes it more simple to count up on the number line. If you start with the higher number, you don't have to count up as many places because you count up whatever the value of the smaller number is

There were two containers of oil. There was twice as much oil in the second container as in the first one. After using 13 liters

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

48 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

First container = x

Second container has twice as much oil.

Second container = 2x

13 liters of oil was used from first container.

x - 13

7 liters of oil was used from the second container.

2x - 7

Second container has 3 times more oil than the first one.

2x - 7 = 3(x - 13)

x - 7 = 3(x - 13)

x - 7 = 3x - 39

2x = 32

x = 16

First container = 16 liters

second container = 16 x 2 = 32 liters

Total = 16 + 32 = 48 liters

Answer:

132 square cm = 20.46 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area = area of base (square) + 4 x area of one triangle.

$= {6}^{2} + 4 \times \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 8 \\ = 36 + 2 \times 48 \\ = 36 + 96 \\ = 132 \: {cm}^{2} \\= 20.46\: inches^2$

A coordinate grid is shown below. 12 11 -1 0 -1 -2 Part A: Which point represents the origin? (2 points) Part B: Starting from t

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Part A: Which point represents the origin?

The origin is the point with both zero coordinates: (0, 0)

Part B: Starting from the origin, explain how to plot the following three points accurately (1,-1) (-1.1.25) (-2,3).

Reference point is the origin for below.

(1,-1) - go right by 1 unit and down by 1 unit, plot the point
(-1.1.25)- go left by 1 unit and up by 1.25 or 1 and 1/4 units, plot the point
(-2,3) - go left by 2 units and up by 3 units and plot the point
