Answer:
Option (b) It has to be an integer less than -10 is the correct option.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that - 10 - x is a positive integer.
We know that positive integers means all the integers greater than 0
Therefore, we can say that
- 10 - x > 0 --(i)
On solving this, we can find the value of x
Adding + x on both sides of equation (i)
- 10 - x + x > x
=> - 10 > x
=> x < - 10
=> all values of x less than - 10
Therefore, Option (b) It has to be an integer less than -10 is the correct option.
