Question

Identify a temperature colder than -7.2f. Write an inequality that relates the temperatures. Describe their positions on a horizontal number line.

Answer 1

colder then -7.2 F would be -8.5 F

-7.2 > -8.5

anything to the left of -7.2 on the number line will be less then(oe in this case, colder then) -7.2....so -8.5 falls to the left of -7.2
