If c = + and x > y > 0, then which of the following is equal to ?
A. x + y
B. x - y
C.
D.
Answer:D
If c = + and x > y > 0, then which of the following is equal to ?
A. x + y B. x - y C. D.
Explanation: D Here's yet another chance to plug in because of the variables in the answer choices. In this case, you have several variables. You should start by plugging in values for x and y, and then work out c. Because x > y > 0, let's say x = 6 and y = 3. Therefore, c = + = + = = . The question asks for the value of, which is the reciprocal of, or 2. This is your target answer. If you plug x = 6 and y = 3 into all of the answer choices, you'll find that only (D) equals 2.
