–8, 8, 6, |–7|, 5
–8, 8, 6, |–7|, 5
|–7|, –8, 8, 6, 5
|–7|, –8, 8, 6, 5
–8, 5, 6, |–7|, 8
–8, 5, 6, |–7|, 8
5, 6, 8, –8, |–7|
–8, 5, 6, |–7|, 8
The set of integers in the right order from least to greatest is: |–7|, –8, 5, 6, 8
To determine which set of integers is in the right order from least to greatest, you need to compare the values in each set and arrange them in ascending order.
Let's start with the first set:
–8, 8, 6, |–7|, 5
To compare the values, you first look for the smallest number. In this set, the smallest number is –8. Then, you proceed to the next smallest number, which is |–7|. The absolute value of –7 is 7, so the next number in the set is 7. After that, you have 5. Finally, the largest number in the set is 8.
Therefore, the correct order from least to greatest for the first set is:
–8, 7, 5, 8
Now, let's move on to the second set:
|–7|, –8, 8, 6, 5
Again, the first number is |–7|, which is 7. Then, you proceed to –8, which is the next smallest value. After that, you have 8, 6, and 5.
Therefore, the correct order from least to greatest for the second set is:
7, –8, 8, 6, 5
Comparing the two sets, we can see that the second set, |–7|, –8, 8, 6, 5, is in the correct order from least to greatest.
