Unlike positives, with negatives, the larger a number is, the smaller it is.
Example :
4 > 2
-4 < -2
so -1.8 is GREATER then -2.1
here is a tip :
picture ur number line....plot -2.1....any number to the right is greater and any number to the left is less...and since -1.8 is to the right of -2.1, it is greater then -2.1
Answer: x=14
Step-by-step explanation:Simplify both sides of the equation(Distribute),Subtract 4/5 from both sides.Multiply both sides by 5/(-1).
width = w
length = w +2
perimeter = 2L + 2w
40 = 2(w+2) + 2w
40 = 2w+4 +2w
40 = 4w+4
36=4w
w=36/4 = 9
with = 9
length = 9+2 = 11
area = l x w = 9*11 = 99 square cm
