Q21. Compare the quantity in Column A... [FREE SOLUTION]

Chapter 1: Q21. (page 53)

Compare the quantity in Column A and the quantity in Column B. Then determine whether:
A. the quantity in Column A is greater;
B. the quantity in Column B is greater;
C. the two quantities are equal;
D. the relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
$0 < s < \frac{3}{4}$
Column A Column B
$1$ $3 s$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The relationship between the quantity in Colum A and the quantity in Column B cannot be determined. So,the correct option isD.

Step by step solution

- Consider the two quantities.

The range of $s$ is:

$0 < s < \frac{3}{4}$

The quantity in column A is:

$1$

The quantity in column B is:

$3 s$

- Evaluate the two quantities.

Write the range of s as:

$0 < s < \frac{3}{4} = 0 < s < 0.75$ .

The quantity in column B is $3 s$ .

Minimum value of s is $0$ and maximum value of s is $0.75$ .

So, the range of $3 s$ is:

$0 < s < 0.75 = 0 < 3 s < 2.25$

Now the quantity in column B is 1.

As $3 s$ can take any value from 0 to $2.25$ . And no specific value of s is given. So, no specific value for 3s can be obtained. Thus, it cannot be said which quantity is greater and hence the relationship cannot be determined.

- State the conclusion.

The relationship between the quantities cannot be determined. Therefore, option D is correct.
