Question

Replace each with <, >, or = to make a true sentence.

11. -4 __ 1
12. 7__ -6
13. 6(-3)__ 2(-9)
14. x-(-5)___12 if x = 7

Answer 1

11. <

12. >

13. =

14. =

Explanation:

-4 is less than 1, as -4 is negative

7 is greater than -6, -6 is negative

6*-3=-18 and 2*-9=-18, so the same

7-(-5) makes it 7+5=12 so 12=12
