Answer 1

Answer:

−5.6<−4.2, and −5.6 is located to the left of −4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statements :

−5.6<−4.2, and −5.6 is located to the left of −4.2 (True) because - 5.6 located to the left of the number line and numbers are arranged from right to left in decreasing order.

−5.6<−4.2, and −5.6 is located to the right of −4.2. (Not true) only the first assertion is correct, - 5.6 < - 4.2, but 5.6 isn't located to the right of - 4.2

−5.6>−4.2, and −5.6 is located to the left of −4.2 (Not true) ; Though 5.6 is located to the left of 4 2, 5.6 is < 4.2

−5.6>−4.2, and −5.6 is located to the right of −4.2. (Not true) ; - 5.6 is < -4.2 and also located to the left of - 4.2
