Question

x and y are integers x + y< 11, and x > 6 What is the smallest possible value of x - y ?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Because x & y are integers, the two equations can be simply written as :

x+y<= 10 --- eq. 1

x>= 7 ---- eq. 2

For smallest value of x-y, x has to be the smallest whereas y has to be the largest.

From the above eq. 2, smallest value of x = 7

Plugging it in eq. 1: 7+y<=10, or y<=3

Therefore, largest value of y=3 & smallest values of x=7

x-y = 7 - 3 = 4

Answer is 4

Answer 2

Answer:

x=5 y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

if x and y,s sum is greater than 11 then

y will be 7 and x will 5
