For mv<pv<0 either m and p or v is -ve
1st m<p if m &p are +ve then v has to be -ve but if v is -ve then it doesnt satisfy mv<pv<0>-12 therefore it doesnt satisfy the condition mv<pv<0> o-----sufff
2nd m<0 means m is -ve with tha same logic as in 1st statment vhas to be greater than 0-----suff

Hi NYC Girl -
Could you explain Statement 1 again? where did mv<pv<0>-12 equation xome from??

1 statment says M<P
now let m & p be positive eg m=2 p=4 now to satisfy mv<pv<0 V has to be negative becauz if v is postive then mv &pv both will be greater than 0 let v be -3
mv =2*-3= -6
pv = 4*-3 = -8 again this doen't satisfy mv<pv<0>-8]
therefore M& p must be ngative
let m=-4 p= -2 (m<p)
Let v=3
mv = -8 , pv=-6 [-8<-6<0] therefore mv<pv<0
V has to be greater than 0
