1. Both numbers and positive

2. to compare fractions to see which is more and which is less

3.
The solution will have the same sign as the number with the highest absolute value.

explanation: any number with a negative sign which is ( - ) is smaller than 0

and a number without a sign next to it is positive

a number line can show you both negative and positive to draw it

for example

__________________

-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5

you can see we start from the left with the negative numbers

if you add a positive and a negative sign  to get the answer is the biggest number ik negative is always the smallest listen look at it like there is no signs and you see which one is the biggest then take that one

ex.

4+(-5)= -1

In trapezoid ABCD, AB ∥ CD , m∠A=90°, AD=8 in, DC=9 in, CB=10 in, and ∠B is acute. Find DB.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

the length of DB is 17 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the sketch attached.

We will draw an imaginary line from point C to met line AB at point E.

A right-angled triangle will now be formed between points CBE.

The dimensions of the right-angled triangle will be:

CB = 10 in

CE= 8 in

EB = unknown

We will now proceed to find out the length of side EB using the Pythagoras' theorem.

EB =\sqrt{CB^2 -CE^2} \\EB =\sqrt{10^2 -8^2} \\EB = 6 in

From the shape, we can find out that another right-angled triangle is made between points DAB.

The dimensions of the triangle are:

DA= 8in

AB = 9 in + 6 in = 15 in

DB = unknown.

We will now proceed to find out the length of side DB using the Pythagoras' theorem.

DB =\sqrt{AD^2 +AB^2} \\DB =\sqrt{8^2 +15^2} \\DB = 17 in

Therefore, the length of DB is 17 in

DerKrebs [107]
Given:250 sheep in a 40-acre pasture.Number of sheep grazing in each acre.
250/40 = 6.25 or 6 sheep per acre
n = 6sample proportion: signified by ρSample 1: 4 → 4/6 = 0.67Sample 2: 1 → 1/6 = 0.17Sample 3: 9 → 9/6 = 1.50
multiply the sample proportion by 1-ρSample 1: 0.67(1-0.67) = 0.67(0.33) = 0.2211Sample 2: 0.17(1-0.17) = 0.17(0.83) = 0.1411Sample 3: 1.50(1-1.5) = 1.5(-0.5) = -0.75
divide the result by n. n = 6Sample 1: 0.2211/6 = 0.03685Sample 2: 0.1411/6 = 0.02352Sample 3: -0.75/6 = -0.125
square root of the quotient to get the standard error.Sample 1: √0.03685 = 0.1919Sample 2: √0.02352 = 0.1534Sample 3: √-0.125 = invalid
z value 95% confidence 1.96.
Sample 1: 1.96 * 0.1919 = 0.3761 or 37.61% margin of errorSample 2: 1.96 * 0.1534 = 0.3007 or 30.07% margin of error
