|a| = -a for a < 0
|a| = a for a ≥ 0
examples:
|-1| = -(-1) = 1; |-4| = -(-4) = 4; |-0.1| = 0.1; |-109| = 109
|7| = 7; |19| = 19; |0| = 0
- |-7 + 4| = - |-3| = - (3) = -3
Answer: -|-7 + 4| = -3
To compare fractions, we need to have the same denominator
The least common multiple is
16
to change

, we should multiply the numerator and denominator by
4

=


<

so basically,

is greater than

which means

is greater

is greater
When the multiples of the equations in a system is added or subtracted, the resulting equation together with any of the original equation will result in the same answer.
Hence, the system of equations
x + 4y = 2
7x = 14
will also have a solution of (2, 0).
Answer: -2.1, -0.5, 5/100, 0.5, √5
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the negative numbers. Take the absolute value - the ones with the largest absolute value are the farthest from 0, so they are the smallest numbers.
-2.1, -0.5
Then, convert the numbers not in decimals to decimals.
5/100 = 0.05
√5 is about 2.3.
5/100, 0.5, √5
