Keith_Richards [23]3 years ago
5 0

No, it is impossible. Intuitively, a negative number sits at the left of 0 on the number line, and a positive number sits at the right of 0 on the number line. And a number x is greater than another number y if x sits at the right of y on the number line. So, every positive number is greater than any negative number.

Also, by definition, a positive number is greater than 0, and a negative number is smaller than zero. So, if x is positive and y is negative, you have

y < 0 < x

and since the relation of order "<" is transitive, this implies

y < x

What is it called when transformation of the plane which reflects each point and then translates it called
Crank

The figures in a plane can be reflected, rotated, translated or dilated to produce new figures or images.

A transformation that moves all points to the same distance and in the same direction. The final figure looks the same, just moved over. It does not flip or gets rotated. It also does not change size.This type of translation is called glide reflection. Its the summation of translation and reflection.
