Converse (switch p and q)
If an angle is obtuse, then it measures 128°
This is false (a 127° angle is obtuse, but it does not measure 128°)
_____________________________________________________________
Inverse (negations of p and q)
If an angle does not measure 128°, then it is not obtuse
This is false (a 127° angle does not measure 128°, but it is obtuse)
_____________________________________________________________
Contrapositive (negations of p and q, then switch their places)
If an angle is not obtuse, it does not measure 128°
This is true (any 128° is obtuse; no exceptions)
Good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The first step to solving this is converting these mixed numbers into improper fractions. You would do that by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding the numerator to that number; this number replaces the numerator. It would look something like this:
1 8/10 --> 18/10
2 2/5 --> 12/5
Now, to subtract the second fraction from the first one, the denominators of both fractions must be the same. We can make them the same by multiplying the second fraction by 2:
12/5 * 2/2 = 24/10
Now we can set up the equation as:
18/10 - 24/10 = -6/10 --> -3/5
The answer is negative 3/5.
I hope this helps.
1 is not even yet it is a factor of 8. Alice is wrong.
