On 5.899 how does the value of the 9 in the thousandths place compare with the value of the 9 in the hundredths place?

The 9 in the hundredths place is 10 times the 9 in the thousandths place

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to compare the value of 9 in the hundredth place and the value of 9 in the thousandths place.

The value of 9 in the hundredth place has a value of 0.09 while the value of 9 in the thousandths place has a value of 0.009

This means we can write 5.899 as 5 + 0.8 + 0.09 + 0.009

Now back to the question, how does 0.09 compare to 0.009? we can see that 0.09 is 10 times 0.009

This mathematically means that;

0.09 = 10 * 0.009

Hence we can conclude that the 9 in the hundredths place is 10 times the 9 in the thousandths place

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
