Answer 1

plz help

Answer 2

wow 3rd time...

as you might know, the closer the negative number is to 0, the bigger it is

ok so for a), just compare the two -- you will have to do this based on the number line, so i would recommend doing c first. but anyway, the answer would be \(−4<−8\)

b) let x be the accepted value, which is true in that particular equation -- x is going to be \(−4<x<−8\)
