Question

Which inequalities are correct? Select all that apply.

Answer 1

Answer: B and C
Explanation:
-2<-2 1/2 because -2 1/2 is a negative and it’s 1/2 more negative making it less than 2 not greater than.

-2> -2 1/2 is correct because like I said in the last one -2 1/2 is less than 2

1> -0.5 is correct because -0.5 is a negative and 1 is a positive

-1> -0.5 is incorrect because -1 is further in the negatives than -0.5 think about it like this if I owe a friend a dollar or 50 cents which one is? The 50 cents

3.4<-4 is incorrect because 3.4 is a positive and -4 is a negative.

Hope this helps!
