Answer:
9872.698 is 9.746 x 1013 in standard form
The expression x-4 will come out to be a negative integer. That means X <em>has to be </em>something that when 4 is taken away from it, the answer is still negative.
Let's try 5.
5-4 is 1. Is 1 negative? No, so that doesn't work.
4-4 is 0. 0 isn't negative either, so that doesn't work.
3-4 is -1. Is -1 negative? YES! Let's try it for 2 as well, just to be safe.
2-4 is -2. Still negative.
X can be anything less than 4.
B, D, and E are all correct. The line is coinciding.
