Hello there!
"Compare the fraction 3/5 to 1/2 and then compare 2/6 to 1/2. Use symbols in your answer"
To make this easier, we will make it so that both fractions in each pair has like bases.
To make 3/5 and 1/2 have a like base, we must make the denominators 10. To do this, we will do the following:
(3*2)/(5*2) = 6/10
(1*5)/(2*5) = 5/10
Now we can easily compare and not worry about the denominator
So, let's just look at the numerators.
Which is greater, 5 or 6? We know 6 is greater, so:
6/10 > 5/10
That means:
3/5 > 1/2
Now, we must do the same for 2/6 and 1/2
We will make them both 6. So, we can leave 2/6 alone
2/6
(1*3)/(2*3) = 3/6
Now we have 2/6 and 3/6
Which is greater, 3 or 2. The answer to that is 2. So:
3/6 > 2/6
This means that 1/2 > 2/6
Our answers are:
1. 3/6 > 2/6
2. 1/2 > 2/6
I hope I was able to help you!

Answer:
∠T = 67.5
∠V = 22.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles of a triangle rule: The angles of a triangle should add up to equal 180
That being said we create an equation to solve for x
180 = 3x + x + 90 ( there is a right angle indicated by the square at the bottom right of the triangle. A right angle has a measure of 90 degrees so that is where the 90 cam from )
Now that we've created an equation we want to solve for x
180 = 3x + x + 90
step 1 combine like terms
3x + x = 4x
now we have 180 = 4x + 90
step 2 subtract 90 from each side
180 - 90 = 90
now we have 90 = 4x
step 3 divide each side by 4
4x / 4 = x
90 / 4 = 22.5
we're left with x = 22.5
Now we want to find ∠T and ∠V
To do so we replace x in the given expressions with 22.5
for ∠V
∠V = x so ∠V = 22.5
for ∠T
∠T = 3x
* replace x with 22.5 *
3 (22.5) = 67.5
Hence ∠T = 67.5

Answer:
slope: 
equation: 
Step-by-step explanation:
- point-slope form of Equation of the Line
1/4 = 3/12
3/12 < 5/12
Therefore, 5/12 is greater than 1/4
