Answer:
Mei is correct because -9 is to the left of -3 on the number line.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because -9 is LESS than -3, when you add or subtract using negative numbers, such as 7-9, you get -2. However when you subtract 7-13, you get -6. Because you subtracted a greater number from 7, your answer is -6 is LESS than -2. This is the same with inequalities, greater negative numbers will always be smaller and smaller negative numbers will always be greater.
Hope this helps!
3. you cannot simplify √30
Answer:
0.399
Step-by-step explanation:
The key to doing this problem properly lies in knowing and following order of operations rules.
Here we must perform mult. and div. before addition and subtr., but even before that we must do all work enclosed in parentheses first.
(22.8 × 10–3) is evaluated by doing the mult. first, and then subtracting 3:
(228-3) = 225
and
(5.7 × 10–6) is evaluated by doing the mult. first, then subtracting 6:
(570-6) = 564.
Finally, we divide 225 by 564, obtaining 0.399 (after rounding off to three decimal places).
So 2680 divided by 100 is 26.80 which is 1%, times 26.80 by 5 to get 5% = £134, £2680+134= £2814
