PLEASE HELP ME!!!! 5 > 2 < 1 True False

OpenStudy (whovianchick):

Think about it seperate. 5>2 2<1 Is 5 more than 2? And is 2 less than 1? The first one is true, but the second is not. False

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first make it to where you understand the questio

OpenStudy (anonymous):

question*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ex 5>2 and 1>2

OpenStudy (countrygirl1431):

i understand the quiestion i just get to symbols confused

OpenStudy (whovianchick):

THink about it as alligators. The alligator jaw wants to eat whichever number is bigger, so that's the way he'll face. if 10>4, the alligator wants 10, not 4. If 3<9, the alligator wants 9, not 3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

make 2 be on the same side of two diff inequality solutions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like i already did so the signs arent confusing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now determine if the statement is true or false

OpenStudy (countrygirl1431):

its false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup, 5>2 and 1>2 is just another way of saying 5>2<1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk how she got a medal cause she never restated the question to where it made sense like i did...

OpenStudy (whovianchick):

@jacobrocket173 chill out dude. I answered the question, I made it make sense, I did it all in one pod, so don't get butthurt. It's fine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you still didnt convert the problem tho like you were suppose to -_-

OpenStudy (whovianchick):

Question: what grade are you in, and what level of math are you at? Be honest.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because @whovianchick it doesnt make sense if you use that explanation with there are 2 inequalities connected into one inequality, therefor my answer should be right compared to your

OpenStudy (anonymous):

junior and alg 2( i was originally suppose to be in trig or pre cal rn)

OpenStudy (whovianchick):

You know you literally had the same answer as me, but you chose to explain it differently. Also, I'm a freshman and am in Pre-AP Algebra II. Cool it. Same level, bub

OpenStudy (whovianchick):

You're overreacting

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pre ap alg 2 is a lower level than alg 2 but not by much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plus if i was overreacting i would be overreacting to if they placed me in the class i was suppose to be in the first place

OpenStudy (whovianchick):

Um, Pre-AP Algebra 2 is higher than On-Level Algebra 2. You not knowing that means that you're lying about your level, or you really are that dumb. You're overreacting to the fact that my answer was awarded. Like, seriously? You're acting 2.
