• Ariana parked on the lower floor. Inequality: -4 < -2

• Jacob parked on the lower floor. Inequality: -2 < -4

• Ariana parked on the lower floor. Inequality: -2 < -4

• Jacob parked on the lower floor. Inequality: -4 < -2

The depth of a crater in South Africa is –40 kilometers. The depth of a crater in Canada is –15 kilometers. Compare the depths of the craters. Which is deeper?

• The crater in South Africa is deeper. Inequality: -40 < -15

• The crater in Canada is deeper. Inequality: -15 < -40

• Both craters are of equal depth. Inequality: -40 = -15

• Cannot be determined from the given information.

The record low temperature in the U.S. is about –80°F. The record low temperature in Spain is about –25°F. Compare the record low temperatures. Which was colder?

• The U.S. record low was colder. Inequality: -80 < -25

• The Spain record low was colder. Inequality: -25 < -80

• Both temperatures are equally cold. Inequality: -80 = -25

• The U.S. record low was warmer. Inequality: -80 > -25
