Well for starters the first one is a DS question and the second one is a PS questionmagical cook wrote:Is r > -1?
(1) r > -5
(2) r <16
Can you possibly explain the differences between the question?
.. anyway i was for some reason not able to post my whole reply so am attaching it to this post .. go thru it and let me know if you have any doubts ... Oh well .. the answer is Dmagical cook wrote:hmm..but I think the answer for the second question should be correct because it's in OG10.....
... When x is between -3 and 5 then obviously x is > -5 ... I am really sorry about this .. I totally misread the question .. I blame the extra sugar intake (you know it being diwali and all) ... 
hmm .. seems like we know a bit of hindi .. so i guess we will be communicating in Hindi henceforthmagical cook wrote:Thanks gabriel for confirmation....
So, can I assume that when X is closed (meaning like -3<x<5), as long as X is "covered" it's ok....
BUT when X is NOT closed (like X<-3) we can not just assume that X<-5 covers because X could be -4.....
extra suger intake....I though you are talking about CHAI tea...
.. 
this is the part I got confused... No, over here the question says, if r>-5 is r>-1, so over here u have to check if r>-1 entirely covers r>-5 which it doesnt, bcoz r can take values between -5 and -1 in which case r is not >-1 ,magical cook wrote:Thanks gabriel (and sorry for bothering again..)
but the first question's answer is E. So that means r>-5 covers r>-1 but not sufficient...?
