Answer:

0.0001 is the greater value

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a good idea to write both the values in the scientific notation and then compare which of the values is greater.

So, to convert 0.00009 in scientific notation, write the first value from the right most side and multiply it with 10 to the negative power of number of digits to the right side of the decimal to get:

0.00009 ---> 9 x 10^-5

And 0.0001 ---> 1 x 10^-4

Comparing 9 x 10^-5 and 1 x 10^-4, we can see that 1 x 10^-4 has a greater power than that of 9 x 10^-5.

Therefore, 0.0001 is the greater value.

If a/b < c/d with b > 0, d > 0, prove that a+c / b+d lies between the two fractions a/b and c/d .

Tems11 [23]

Divide through everything by b :

$\dfrac{a+c}{b+d} = \dfrac{\dfrac ab + \dfrac cb}{1 + \dfrac db}$

Since a/b < c/d, it follows that

$\dfrac{a+c}{b+d} < \dfrac{\dfrac cd+\dfrac cb}{1 + \dfrac db}$

Multiply through everything on the right side by b/d to get

$\dfrac{a+c}{b+d} < \dfrac{\dfrac{bc}{d^2}+\dfrac cd}{\dfrac bd+1} = \dfrac{\dfrac cd\left(\dfrac bd+1\right)}{\dfrac bd+1} = \dfrac cd$

and so (a + c)/(b + d) < c/d.

For the other side, you can do something similar and divide through everything by d :

$\dfrac{a+c}{b+d} = \dfrac{\dfrac ad + \dfrac cd}{\dfrac bd + 1}$

and a/b < c/d tells us that

$\dfrac{a+c}{b+d} > \dfrac{\dfrac ad + \dfrac ab}{\dfrac bd + 1}$

Then

$\dfrac{a+c}{b+d} > \dfrac{\dfrac ab + \dfrac{ad}{b^2}}{1 + \dfrac db} = \dfrac{\dfrac ab\left(1+\dfrac db\right)}{1 + \dfrac db} = \dfrac ab$

and so (a + c)/(b + d) > a/b.

Then together we get the desired inequality.
