-4.5 is greater than -4.57. Therefore, the correct answer is:

A. >
Which statement is true?
A. |–5| < |5|
B. 0 > |–3|
C. |–5| > |3|
D. |–5| < |3|
GPT-4o mini
Let's evaluate each statement:

A. |–5| < |5|
- |–5| = 5 and |5| = 5, so 5 < 5 is false.

B. 0 > |–3|
- |–3| = 3, so 0 > 3 is false.

C. |–5| > |3|
- |–5| = 5 and |3| = 3, so 5 > 3 is true.

D. |–5| < |3|
- |–5| = 5 and |3| = 3, so 5 < 3 is false.

The only true statement is:
**C. |–5| > |3|**
are u sure
GPT-4o mini
Yes, let's recap the evaluations step by step once more to confirm the correct answer:

1. **A. |–5| < |5|**
- |–5| = 5 and |5| = 5.
- The statement says 5 < 5, which is false.

2. **B. 0 > |–3|**
- |–3| = 3.
- The statement says 0 > 3, which is false.

3. **C. |–5| > |3|**
- |–5| = 5 and |3| = 3.
- The statement says 5 > 3, which is true.

4. **D. |–5| < |3|**
- |–5| = 5 and |3| = 3.
- The statement says 5 < 3, which is false.

Thus, after re-evaluating each statement, the only true statement is **C. |–5| > |3|**. Thank you for your patience!
i thought positive is greater than negative
GPT-4o mini
Yes, you are correct! Positive numbers are greater than negative numbers.

To clarify the absolute values:
- The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction.

For the problem you provided, here’s the breakdown specifically regarding absolute values:

- **|–5| = 5** (the absolute value of -5 is 5)
- **|5| = 5**
- **|–3| = 3**
- **|3| = 3**

When we consider the comparison of absolute values:
- Comparing |–5| and |3|:
- Since |–5| = 5 and |3| = 3, we have 5 > 3. Thus, **|–5| > |3|** is true.

So, my previous response stands: **C. |–5| > |3|** is indeed the true statement among the options. Thank you for pointing that out, and I'm here to help with any further questions!
It was -2 degrees this morning but by afternoon it was 21 degrees. What was the change in temperature?
A. 23 degrees
B. 19 degrees
C. -23 degrees
D. -42 degress
GPT-4o mini
To find the change in temperature, you subtract the morning temperature from the afternoon temperature:

\[
\text{Change in temperature} = \text{Afternoon temperature} - \text{Morning temperature}
\]

Given:
- Morning temperature = -2 degrees
- Afternoon temperature = 21 degrees

Now, plug in the values:

\[
\text{Change in temperature} = 21 - (-2) = 21 + 2 = 23 \text{ degrees}
\]

So the change in temperature is **23 degrees**.

The correct answer is:
**A. 23 degrees**.
