A. Which number is greater? 1/4 or 5/4 -3/4 or 5/8 b. Which number is farther from 0? 1/4 or 5/4 -3/4 or 5/8

c. Is the number that is farther from 0 always the greater number?

a. Which number is greater? 1/4 or 5/4 -3/4 or 5/8:

answer: 5/4

b. Which number is farther from 0? 1/4 or 5/4 -3/4 or 5/8:

answer: 5/4

c. Is the number that is farther from 0 always the greater number?:

answer: nah really.

A number can be further from zero but when it's a negative or positive. But negative value is less than zero.

something that characterises a right triangle is the fact that we may use pythagoras' theorem to find any one of its sides given that we have the length of the other two sides. here, we have the length of the hypotenuse, √(87) yd, and one other side, √(23) yd, thus we can easily find the length of the remaining side using pythagoras' theorem as defined below:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.

thus, given that c = √(87) and a = √(23), we may substitute these into the formula we defined above to get:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

(√87)^2 = (√23)^2 + b^2 (substitute c = √87 and a = √23 into the equation)

87 = 23 + b^2 (evaluate (√87)^2 = 87 and (√23)^2 = 23 - remember that the square root of a number, squared will equal that very same number)

64 = b^2 (subtract 23 from both sides)

√64 = b (take the square root of both sides)

8 = b (evaluate √64 = 8)

therefor, the length of the unknown leg in the right triangle is 8 yd (first answer).

explanation:

infrared radiation has wavelength in the range between 700 nm and 1 mm. lets' convert these values into scientific notation, keeping in mind that:

let's start from the lower value, we have:

(we moved the dot two places to the left, so we increased the exponent by 2 units, from -9 to -7)

the higher value is:

so, the range of wavelength of infrared radiation is:
