OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when a no. is increased, then the magnitude becomes greater... so in all the above cases the magnitude of a is only increased only in option c\[a <a+b\]

Translate the word phrase into a variable expression. Eight less than the quotient of x and 3. A. 3x-8 B. x/3-8 C. x-8/3 D. 8-x/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in the topmost question if you consider b as negative no. then magnitude of 'a' increases only in option A as a-(-c)>a+(-c) where b=-c so a condition in the question must be there that 'b' must be positive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you know what are integers?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's why you didn't understand that what is "-b"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

see as there are numbers starting from 0,1,2,3.... there are also numbers behind 0 that are -1,-2,-3......so on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thus ..........-3,-2-1,01,2,3..... these are integers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x/3-8
