Can someone please help I been trying to figure this out for a long time and you guys help me?
2. Which of the following is a true statement? (1 point)
A.) |–2| < |1| *** My answer
B.) |1| < |0|
C.) |–1| < |–2|
D.) |1| > |–2|*** My answer
(but there is one problem, only one answer is correct)
10. Which pair of expressions has the same value? (1 point)
A.) (2)(–8) and 2 – 18 *** My Answer
B.) (–2)(8) and 18 + (–2)
C.) 2(8) and 2 + 18
D.) (–2)(–8) and 2 + (–18)
This are the only questions I have doubt with. Thanks !
2. Which of the following is a true statement? (1 point)
A.) |–2| < |1| *** My answer
********************
you are telling me that 2 is less than 1 ??? No way
B.) |1| < |0|
NO
C.) |–1| < |–2|
yes one is less than 2
D.) |1| > |–2|*** My answer
but 1 IS NOT bigger than 2
(but there is one problem, only one answer is correct)
10. Which pair of expressions has the same value? (1 point)
A.) (2)(–8) and 2 – 18 *** My Answer
YES
-16
B.) (–2)(8) and 18 + (–2)
-16 and+16
C.) 2(8) and 2 + 18
16 and 20
D.) (–2)(–8) and 2 + (–18)
16 and -16
Thanks !!!! You guys are amazing . And for taking care of impersonators. :)
Yes, indeed! We have zero tolerance for impersonators!!
To determine the correct answer for each question, we will analyze the options and compare them to find the one that meets the given condition.
For question 2, we need to compare the absolute values of the numbers:
A.) |–2| < |1|
B.) |1| < |0|
C.) |–1| < |–2|
D.) |1| > |–2|
In this case, the correct answer is D.) |1| > |–2|.
To explain why this is the correct answer, we can look at the absolute values of the numbers involved. The absolute value of |1| is 1, and the absolute value of |–2| is also 2. So, |1| is greater than |–2| because 1 is greater than 2.
For question 10, we need to find the pair of expressions that have the same value:
A.) (2)(–8) and 2 – 18
B.) (–2)(8) and 18 + (–2)
C.) 2(8) and 2 + 18
D.) (–2)(–8) and 2 + (–18)
In this case, the correct answer is B.) (–2)(8) and 18 + (–2).
To explain why this is the correct answer, we can simplify each expression:
A.) (2)(–8) = –16 , 2 – 18 = –16 (not the same value)
B.) (–2)(8) = –16 , 18 + (–2) = 16 (same value)
C.) 2(8) = 16 , 2 + 18 = 20 (not the same value)
D.) (–2)(–8) = 16 , 2 + (–18) = –16 (not the same value)
As we can see, only in option B do the expressions have the same value, which is –16.
I hope this helps clarify the correct answers for these two questions! If you have any more doubts, feel free to ask.
