Answer:
Positive: Decimals are a part of a whole just like fractions are a part of a whole. Therefore, a positive decimal is always greater than a negative decimal.
Negative: When you have two negative decimals, the one closer to zero is always greater. The farther a negative decimal is from zero, the smaller its value.
All of it put together (same text as above):
Decimals are a part of a whole just like fractions are a part of a whole. Therefore, a positive decimal is ALWAYS greater than a negative decimal. When you have two negative decimals, the one closer to zero is always greater. The farther a negative decimal is from zero, the smaller its value.
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
1 - Rewrite
6 - 2/3 (x+5) = 4x
2 - Distribute
6 - 2/3x + 10/3 = 4x
3 - Combine like terms and get x alone
6 10/3 - 2/3x = 4x
+2/3x +2/3x
6 10/3 = 4 2/3x
------------------------------- Convert to decimals
6.3333333333.... = 4.333...x
-------------------------------- Divide both sides by 4.33...x
2 = x
