Question

Fill in the blanks to make the number sentence thue . —/3*11>11. And. 5*——/8<5

Answer 1

Answer:

1)for x > 3  statement (1) is true.

2) for y < 8  statement (2) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given : two sentences.

1) $\frac{x}{3} \times 11>11$

2) $5\times\frac{y}{8}$

We have to find for what values of x and y the statement are true.

Consider

1)  $\frac{x}{3} \times 11>11$

We solve for x ,

Divide both side by 11, we get,

$\frac{x}{3}>1$

Now, multiply both side by 3, we get,

$x>3$

Thus, for x > 3  statement (1) is true.

2) $5\times\frac{y}{8}$

Here, we solve for y ,

Divide both side by 5, we get,

$\frac{y}{8}$

Now, multiply both side by 8, we get,

$y$

Thus, for y < 8  statement (2) is true.
