Ok so immagine a number line

in the middle is zero
to the left ot zero is negative
to the right of zero is positivee
the farther to the right you are, the bigger you are
the farther to the left you are,the smaller you are

negative means like backwards

-5 or -17?
5 steps back or 17 steps back
answer is 17 steps back or -17 steps

-17 lol because it's a negative the "larger" the number is, the less it is on the scale between negatives and positives.

Explain how estimating helps you check the reasonableness of your answers?
Nezavi [6.7K]
So if you have 9 cats and they each have 9 kittens, then a reasonaable estimate is 10 times 9 since 10 is close to 9 so that is 90 and the answer is 81
you would knwo if you got 988387479 kittens if you got a problem because that is nowhere close to 90

which has a greater effect on the volume - changing the radius by a given amount or changing the height by the same amount/ why?
AURORKA [14]
Assuming we’re talking about a cylinder, whose volume formula is V = pi r^2 h…

It will have a greater effect to change a variable’s value that has a greater power on it.

Changing h from 1 to 2 doubles the volume.
Changing r from 1 to 4 quadruples the volume, because 1^2 = 1 and 2^2 = 4. The effect of the change on r is amplified by the power.
