What ever number A is, it is going to be less than whatever number B is.

If a<span> is less than </span>b<span>, and they are both positive, then </span>a<span> is closer to 0 than </span>b<span>. The opposite of </span>a<span> is also closer to zero than the opposite of </span>b<span>, so the opposite of a must be larger than the opposite of </span>b. T<span>he number further left on a number line is the smaller number, for positive numbers, the number closest to zero is smaller.</span>

The elevator of a high-rise office building provides access to all floors. if each floor is 5 meters high and the elevator trave
nadya68 [22]
Height of each floor = 5 meters
time to travel from the first floor to 68th floor = ?
Speed of elevator = 7.5m/s
While an elevator travels from 1st floor to 68th floor, we will multiply the height of floor with 67 to get the distance covered by the elevator form 1st floor to 68th floor, the height of 68th floor will not be counted in the distance because an elevator reaches the 68th floor not covered the height of that floor.
Distance = 5 x 67 = 335m
Now calculate the time by using the formula;
time = distance / speed
= 335m / 7.5m/s
= 44.667 seconds
Thus, an elevator will take 44.667 seconds to reach 68th floor.

What is the sum of the polynomials? 1.3t3 + t2 – 42t + 8 1.3t3 + t2 – 6t + 8 1.9t3 + 8.4t2 – 42t 1.9t2 – 42t + 8
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
(1)1.3t^3 +t^2 -42t +8
(2)1.3t^3 + t^2 -6t +8
(3)1.9 t^3.+ 8.4^t^2 -42t
(4)1.9t^2 -42t + 8

I hope I got that right!!
okay, now they are all separated in columns, add the ones with the same powers (e.g (1)_ 1.3t^3 + (2) 1.3t^3 + (3) 1.9 t^3 = 4.5t^3.
