do order of operations:
60 / 5*(7-5)=
do parenthesis first: 7-5=2
60 / 5*2 =
now do division: 60/5 =12
12*2 =
now multiply: 12 *2 = 24
answer is 24
F(x)=2x-3
f(1/2)=2(1/2)-3
f(1/2)= 1-3
f(1/2)= -2
To show how you decided, the simple way would be to draw a picture. Create 2 rectangles of the same length and divide them up according to the fraction. Then shade the number of pieces for the numerator and compare both fractions. Whichever is longer is the greater fraction.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the length of the diagonals will be more than the side.
Lets suppose the quadrilateral is a rectangle, with sides 6 and 4.
The length of a diagonal is:
√(6*6)+(4*4)
√36+16
√52
7.21(rounded off to 3 sig. fig.)
So, 6+4+6+4<2(7.21+7.21)
20< 2*14.42
20<28.84, which is true.
