Given:

$\dfrac{2}{10}$ divded by $\dfrac{2}{4}$ .

To find:

The solution for the given division problem.

Solution:

We have, $\dfrac{2}{10}$ divded by $\dfrac{2}{4}$ . It can be written as

$\dfrac{2}{10}\div \dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{2}{10}\times \dfrac{4}{2}$

$\dfrac{2}{10}\div \dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{2\times 4}{10\times 2}$

$\dfrac{2}{10}\div \dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{8}{20}$

$\dfrac{2}{10}\div \dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{2}{5}$

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

3 - 2x = -1.5x

Step 2: Solve for x

Add 2x on both sides: 3 = 0.5x
Divide 0.5 on both sides: 6 = x
Rewrite: x = 6

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x: 3 - 2(6) = -1.5(6)
Multiply: 3 - 12 = -9
Subtract: -9 = -9

Here we see that -9 does indeed equal -9.

∴ x = 6 is the solution to the equation.

Which of the following is true?

Ratling [72]

In this question, we're trying to find the inequality that is true.

To find your answer, we can convert the numbers in the absolute value:

|−5| < 4:

5 < 4 false

|−4| < |−5|:

4 < 5 true

|−5| < |4|

5 < 4 false

|−4| < −5

4 < -5 false

The only true inequality here would be |−4| < |−5|, since it works with the inequality sign.

Answer:

|−4| < |−5|
