Question

write a pair integers whose difference is a) a negative integer b) zero c) an integer smaller than both the integers d) an integer smaller than only one of the integers e) an integer greater than both the integers

Answer 1

a) 3,6 so that 3-6 = -3 
b) 2,2 so that 2-2 = 0
c) 7,5, so that 7-5 = 2, 2 is smaller than 5 and 7
d) 8,2. so that 8-2 = 6, 6 is smaller than 8, not 2
e) 3, -4 so that 3 - (-4) = 3 +4  =7 is greater than both 3 and -4

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A) A negative integer

A = 3, B = 6

A - B = 3 - 6 = -3

B) Zero

A = 2, B = 2

A - B = 2 - 2 = 0

C) An integer smaller than both the integers

A = 7, B = 5

A - B = 7 - 5 = 2

D) An integer smaller than only one of the integers

A = 8, B = 2

A - B = 8 - 2 = 6

E) An integer greater than both the integers

A = 3, B = -4

A - B = 3 - (-4)

= 3 + 4 = 7
