Answer:

-1<-0.25

With -1>0.25 you have a negative(-1) and a positive(0.25) the negative will always be less than the positive proving the equation wrong

Moving onto -1<-0.25 this one is a little trickier because they both have a negative so this is where you look at the number line and see which number is closer to 0 and whichever number is is greater meaning this is the correct answer.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Simultaneous Linear Equations could be solved by using several methods such as :

<em>Elimination Method</em>
<em>Substitution Method</em>
<em>Graph Method</em>

If we have two linear equations with 2 variables x and y , then we need to find the value of x and y that satisfying the two equations simultaneously.

Let us tackle the problem!

<em>Number of Commercials = C</em>

<em>Number of Movies = M</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Jaces songs were played on 6 more commercials than movies.</em>

$\boxed{C = 6 + M}$ → <em>Equation 1</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Jace will earn $50 every time one of his songs is played in a commercial and he will earn $140 every time one of his songs is played in a movie.</em>

<em>His total earnings in the royalties from all commercials and movies was $680.</em>

$\boxed{50C + 140M = 680}$ → <em>Equation 2</em>
