During a training mission, a battleship was ordered to find a submarine submerged at a depth of 1,220 feet and a fighter jet flying 1,150 feet in the air. On a number line, let 0 represent the battleship’s location, at sea level, with higher elevation on the positive side of 0. Which number sentence correctly compares the absolute values of the elevations of the submarine and the fighter jet?
A. |-1,220| > |1,150|
B. |-1,220| < |1,150|
C. |1,220| < |-1,150|
D. |1,220| = |-1,150|

B

Step-by-step explanation:

-1220 is negative lower than 0 and 1150 is higher than zero.

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.

step-by-step explanation:

x^(1/6) · x^(1/6) · x^(1/6)   ·x^(1/6) = x^(4/6)   since we add the exponents

4/6 can be simplified to 2/3

the simplified form is x^(2/3)
