Kendra placed the numbers -3/8, 0.27, -0.3 and 4/7 on the number line. Which of the numbers is furthest from zero

1 answer:

8 0

In order to solve this, you're going to need something called "absolute value" (it's basically putting vertical lines around a term like |x| ). And you're going to use it for all the values you have, and find the largest number. This is simply because absolute value literally means the distance from zero. So, doing the problem for you: you'd start off by finding the absolute value for each of those values [3/8 ,0.27, 0.3, 4/7]. It is only a matter of finding out that 4/7 is the largest of those four numbers. Hope I helped :)

PLEASE HELP ME :(<br> God bless.

Answer:

x - 99 ≤ -104 → 2nd line

x - 51 ≤ -43 → 1st line

150 + x ≤ 144 → 4th line

75 < 69 - x → 3rd line

Step-by-step explanation:

Ugh! Wow, this is going to be tedious, thanks alot, bro (jk, I got your back).

x - 99 ≤ -104

+ 99 + 99

x ≤ -5

There should be a line going from -5 to negative infinity (AKA the left) with a FILLED circle. So, the second one is correct.

x - 51 ≤ -43

+ 51 + 51

x ≤ 8

There should be an arrow with a FILLED circle going to negative infinity (AKA the left). So, the first one is correct.

I'm going to take a shortcut and notice that one of the lines has a filled circle while the other one has an empty circle. So the empty circle must relate to the question without a ≤ or ≥, but with a < or >. We see that 75 < 69 doesn't have ≤ or ≥ but a '<.' So this one must have the empty circle, which is on line 3. The last equation has to be on line 4.
