Answer:
Closer to 0 than 0.5, or under zero
Step-by-step explanation:
On a vertical number line, anything above zero is positive, and anything under zero is negative. If 0.5 is the greater number, then it has to be closer to zero, or under it.
Answer:
<em>The denominator is 12</em>

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The Number Line</u>
We can represent any real number in a properly segmented line, where the zero-mark is the separation between positive numbers to its right side and negative numbers to the left side.
We are given the number x = 2/3. Since it's positive, its location lies to the right of the zero but before the 1 as shown in the figure below.
We want to locate a second point y at the same distance from 0 as the point x, so we have two options: y is the same as x, or y is negative at the same distance from zero. We chose the last option.
Its numerator must be 8, so we need to multiply it by 4. But we cannot alter the value of x, so we must also multiply the denominator by 4, which gives us the fraction 8/12, but recall it must be negative.

The denominator is 12
A:b = 8:5 b:c = 3:4
since both sides have b. make b the same. multiply the left by the right side b value of 3 and multiply the right by the left side b value of 5.
3(a:b) and 5(b:c)
3 (8:5) and 5(3:4)
24:15 15:20
now that both sides have the same b value
a:b:c = 24:15:20
Answer:
George is a good friend :)
Step-by-step explanation:
20^2=10^2+2√39^2
400=100+12.49
400=112.49
means c^2>a^2+b^2
so the answer is an obtuse triangle
