So you have -13, then a number that's somewhere to the right of -13. imagine a number line: the negative values are on the left side of the zero, the positive values are on the right. if you're moving to the RIGHT of -13, that means that the value will be greater than -13, or in other words, -13 will be less than the new value because you moved right.

to find the number 28 units to the right of -13, you simply need to add these two numbers: -13 + 28. you add them because you're moving 28 units in the POSITIVE direction, aka you're going UP, so you want to add. -13 + 28 = 15.

now read the statements your question gave you. C and D are just straight-up false--a positive number is never less than a negative number. those are out immediately. now, the numbers you're working with are -13 and 15, so you can immediately ignore B as an answer choice, but still: A is correct because it shows the correct inequality. -13 is less than the number 28 units to the right of it, that number being positive 15.

Please give me the correct answer ​
Furkat [3]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

1 over 10x10x10 is basically, 10 to the power of 3. 10x10 is 100, and 100x10 is 1000. An easy way to do this. Since we have 3 tens, we start with 10, then add a 0, then add another 0. Gives you 1000.

7. Answer is D! 1 to the 3rd power, 1^3, or 1 cubed as you'll hear it, is 1 because when something is cubed that means it's times itself 3 times. (EX: 4^3 = 4x4x4) 2 cubed is 8. 3 cubed is 27. 4 cubed is 64 and 5 cubed is 125!

8. Answer is C! A is gaining speed and B is the capped speed, meaning it can't get any higher, and C is the loss of speed.
