If a + 1 = b, then b > a.

a. create a pair of values for a and b in which the numerical relationship shown in the given conditional statement is true. in your final answer, include the values of the variables and proof of truth.

b. is it possible to create a pair of values for a and b in which the numerical relationship shown in the given conditional statement is false?

A)

When a is positive:

     Let us consider a=10

      and a+1=b

       This implies that:

          b=11

     As we know that 11>10

           Hence, b>a

When a is negative:

   Let us consider a= -2

      and a+1=b

       This implies that:

          b= -1   (Since -2+1= -1 )

     As we know that -1 > -2

           Hence, b>a

B)

No, it is not possible to create a set of values for a and b such that the numerical relationship shown in the given conditional statement is false .

Since as we no that no matter whether a is positive or negative we always have:

                        a < a+1

Hence,      a< b  ( Since b=a+1 )

for all the values of  a and b.
