The question is incomplete.

OpenStudy (igreen):

The pieces of wood used in a building project must be less than _______ feet long. Show the possible lengths.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15 3/4

OpenStudy (igreen):

It says it must be less than 15 3/4, so which sign should we use?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

<

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry no >

OpenStudy (igreen):

Correct, so we have p < 15 3/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so positive

OpenStudy (igreen):

No, you were correct the first time, '<' is the less than symbol(it means the number on the left is less than the number on the right).

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yep, you got it, we can't have a negative length of wood.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it

OpenStudy (igreen):

I don't know, the choices are messed up.

OpenStudy (igreen):

Does C show p < 15 3/4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, C is correct.
