Which of the following are solutions to the inequality below? Select all that apply. –6 < z Multi-select Choices: (A)z = –5 (B)z = –10 (C)z = –9 (D)z = –6

Understand the inequality: Understand the inequality. The inequality –6 < z means that z must be greater than –6.Test option (A): Test each option against the inequality. Option (A) tests if z = –5 is a solution. –5 is greater than –6, so –5 < z is true.Test option (B): Test option (B). Option (B) tests if z = –10 is a solution. –10 is not greater than –6, so –6 < z is false when z = –10.Test option (C): Test option (C). Option (C) tests if z = –9 is a solution. –9 is not greater than –6, so –6 < z is false when z = –9.Test option (D): Test option (D). Option (D) tests if z = –6 is a solution. –6 is not greater than –6, it is equal to –6, so –6 < z is false when z = –6.

Q. Which of the following are solutions to the inequality below? Select all that apply.

\newline

-6 < z

\newline

Multi-select Choices:

\newline

(A)

z = -5

\newline

(B)

z = -10

\newline

(C)

z = -9

\newline

(D)

z = -6

Understand the inequality: Understand the inequality. $\newline$ The inequality –6 < z means that $z$ must be greater than $–6$ .
Test option (A): Test each option against the inequality. $\newline$ Option (A) tests if $z = -5$ is a solution. $\newline$ $-5$ is greater than $-6$ , so -5 < z is true.
Test option (B): Test option (B). $\newline$ Option (B) tests if $z = -10$ is a solution. $\newline$ $-10$ is not greater than $-6$ , so -6 < z is false when $z = -10$ .
Test option (C): Test option (C). $\newline$ Option (C) tests if $z = -9$ is a solution. $\newline$ $-9$ is not greater than $-6$ , so -6 < z is false when $z = -9$ .
Test option (D): Test option (D). $\newline$ Option (D) tests if $z = -6$ is a solution. $\newline$ $-6$ is not greater than $-6$ , it is equal to $-6$ , so -6 < z is false when $z = -6$ .
