< means 'less than'. 3.5 is less than 4.5, so A is correct. Since -4.5 is NEGATIVE it is less than 0. As for C, since both numbers are negative, it would be the seemingly 'smaller' number that is actually bigger. It may help to think of the numbers on a number line. In the negatives, the numbers start to go in reverse, so the further from 0 a negative number is, the smaller it is. -4.5 IS LESS than -3.5. All answers are correct.
X - y = 2400/6 = 400 where x = speed of plane and y = speed of wind.
x + y = 2400/5 = 480 - flying with the wind
adding the 2 equations
2x = 880
x = 440
Speed of the plane with no wind = 440 mph
Okay this equation really says is what is 30% of 248.
So, lets convert 30% to a fraction, 3/10 which is easier to work with.
All you have to do now is get out a calculator and do 248 *3/10 (or .3) and get 74.4
So subtract 74.4 and get
173.6
Answer:
9.3 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the radius of the spinner be given below:
Let us assume the same be x
So
We know that
Total area of the sector = one-sixth of the total area of the spinner
Given that
45.1 = 1 ÷ 6 × π × r^2
r^2 = 45.1 × 6 ÷ π
r^2 = 86.1
r = 9.279
= 9.3 inches
Draw a number line with 10 positives and 10 negatives. Count from 0 to 8. Now, from 8, count back 12 spots. From that spot, go back to 0, which is their original position. The number you counted there is your answer.
