Answer:
(a)5 and 8
(b)5 and 5
(c) 7 and 5
(d)6 and 2
(e)6 and -2
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)a negative integer
We consider the integers 5 and 8
Difference = 5-8 =-3
3 is a negative integer.
(b)Zero
We consider the integers 5 and 5
Difference = 5-5 =0
(c) an integer smaller than both the integer.
We consider the integers 7 and 5
Difference = 7-5 =2
2 is smaller than both integers.
(d) an integer smaller than only one of the integers.
We consider the integers 6 and 2
Difference =6-2=4
4 is smaller than only 6.
(e)an integer greater than both the integers
We consider the integers 6 and -2
Difference =6-(-2)=6+2=8
8 is greater than both 6 and -2.
