Question

If -1< y< 0, which of the following has the greatest value?

Answer 1

B because the greatest one is 1.5 so the answer is 1-y

Answer 2

`\boxed{\sf B}`

Explanation:

-1 < y < 0

The value of y is negative.

Let’s take the number -0.5.

(-0.5)² = 0.25

1 - (-0.5) = 1.5

1 + (-0.5) = 0.5

2(-0.5) = -1

The greatest value is 1.5.

The answer is 1 - y.
