Answer: OPTION D.
Step-by-step explanation:
The symbol of the inequality ">" means "greater than". Then, -5 is greater than -6.
If a negative number -a is greater than other negative number -b , then the distance between -a and zero is shorter than the distance between -b and zero.
You can see in the number line attached that -5 is closer to 0 than -6. Therefore, -5 is located to the right of -6.

Answer:
275 seconds, or 4 min 35 s
Step-by-step explanation:
The first set is red for 15 seconds and green for 40 seconds, so it repeats the cycle every 55 seconds.
The second set is red for 35 seconds and green for 15 seconds, so it repeats the cycle every 50 seconds.
A car will stop at the first set, wait 15 seconds, then drive for 60 seconds to the second set, which will just turn red. So we need to find how many cycles it takes for the beginning of the two sets to be 75 seconds apart.
If x is the number of cycles of the first set, and y is the number of cycles of the second set, then:
55x + 75 = 50y
y = 1.1x + 1.5
y must be an integer, so we need to find an integer value of x such that 1.1x ends in 0.5. For example, x = 5.
y = 1.1(5) + 1.5
y = 5.5 + 1.5
y = 7
If we wait for the first set to cycle 5 times, the beginning of the 6th cycle will be 75 seconds before the beginning of the second set's 8th cycle. So the pedestrian must wait 5 × 55 = 275 seconds, or 4 min 35 s.
