Which two statements are true? a. 2/7 times 3/8 < 3/8 because 2/7 < 1b. 2/7 times 3/8 < 3/8 because 2/7 > 1c. 2/7 times 3/8< 2/7 because 3/8 < 1d. 2/7 times 3/8 < 2/7 because 3/8< 1e. 2/7 times 3/8 > 2/7 because 3/8 < 1

When we multiply a number with a number less than 1 then the result will always smaller than the original number.

For example: 4* 0.5 =2

Here 0.5 is less than 1. So, when we will multiply 0.5 with 4 then we got the result 2 which is smaller than 4.

If denominator is bigger than the numerator then that number will be less than 1.

So, 2/7 is less than 1 because 7 is more than 2.

Similarly 3/8 is also less than 1.

So, Choice B is not correct as it says 2/7>1.

Let's check the other choices now.

A. 2/7 times 3/8 < 3/8 because 2/7 < 1

Multiply the numerators and denominators.

0.1<0.375

Above inequality satisfy.

So, A is the correct choice.

C. 2/7 times 3/8< 2/7 because 3/8 < 1

0.1<0.286

This inequality also satisfy. So, C is also correct.

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
