Question

Which of the following statements is false? -2>5, -5<2, 2->-5, 5>-2

Answer 1

Hello!

Answer:

`\Large \boxed{\sf -2 > 5}`

Explanation:

We want to find which of the following statements is false:

▪
`\sf -2 > 5`

▪
`\sf -5 < 2`

▪
`\sf -2 > -5`

▪
`\sf 5 > -2`

-2 > 5 is false because -2 is less than 5 and not greater that 5.

-2 > - 5 is true because -2 is greater than -5.

-5 < 2 is true because -5 is less than 2.

5 > -2 is true because 5 is greater than -2.
