1. -1/5>-3/5 because we have like denominators we compare the inputs by the numerators.
2. 3/4 > 5/8 the least common denominator is: 8
Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:
3/4 = 6/8 5/8 = 5/8
Comparing the numerators of the equivalent fractions we have:
6/8 > 5/8
To answer question 12, you first need to know the definition of a <em>prism</em> and a<em> pyramid.
</em>A <em>pyramid </em> is a 3-D structure with one base, whose outer faces are made of triangles, and meet at a single point at the top.
A <em>prism</em> is any 3-D shape with a base of any number of sides, another base with the same amount of sides, and faces joining the two together on every side of the bases.
12.
Shape A is a <em>pyramid</em>, because it has one base, and all the faces join together in at one point.
Shape B is a <em>prism</em>, because it has two bases, and faces joining every side of the bases.
Shape C is a <em>prism.</em>
Shape D is a <em>pyramid.
</em>For #13, you have to know the definition of a cube to figure out the math of how many cubes there are.
A cube is a 3-D shape with six sides, all made up of squares of the same size.
The box has a volume of 120 cubic inches, and each cube is 1 inch. Since every side of a cube is equal, a 1-inch cube is one cubic inch.
This means that a box with a volume of 120 cubic inches will fit 120 of the 1 inch cubes.
1 layer of the cubes, in the diagram, is 8 cubes by 3 cubes, or 24 cubes total.
To find the number of layers needed to fill the box, you divide 120 by 24.
120 ÷ 24 = 5
The answer to #13 is 5 layers.
The coordinates for D are (-4, -7)
First we must locate point B as it is vital to finding the midpoint of BD. To do this, we take the average of the endpoints AC since B is its midpoint.
x values = -9 + 1 = -8
Then divide by 2 for the average -8/2 = -4
y values = -4 + 6 = 2
Then divide by 2 for the average 2/2 = 1
Therefore B must be (-4, 1)
Now we know the values of E must be the average of B and D. So we can write equations for each coordinate since we know they are averages.
x - values = (Bx + Dx)/2 = Ex
(-4 + Dx)/2 = -4 ---> multiply both sides by 2
-4 + Dx = -8 ---> add -4 to both sides
Dx = -4
y - values = (By + Dy)/2 = Ey
(1 + Dy)/2 = -3 ---> multiply both sides by 2
1 + Dy = -6 ---> subtract 1 from both side
Dy = -7
So the coordinates for D must be (-4, -7)
She has = 5- 2 = 3
3 >= y * 0.55 > 0.55
5 > y > 1 (truncate in case of count)
