Determine if the statements are true or false. You can use the number line to assist you. (4 points) True False 2 is less than 2 12 . −1.5 is greater than −1 . −1 is greater than 12 . 1 12 is less than 12 .

1 answer

Let's determine the truth value of each statement one by one:

  1. 2 is less than 2
    This statement is False. A number cannot be less than itself.

  2. −1.5 is greater than −1
    This statement is False. On the number line, −1.5 is to the left of −1, so −1.5 is actually less than −1.

  3. −1 is greater than 12
    This statement is False. −1 is to the left of 12 on the number line, meaning it is less than 12.

  4. 12 is less than 12
    This statement is False. Similarly to the first statement, a number cannot be less than itself.

So, all statements are False.
