The set of integers less than +5 and greater than -4.
Explanation/ Solution:
Starting from -1, if we move 7 units going to the left, it falls at -8. So the
set of integers are {-8, -7, -6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1}
Explanation/ Solution:
As we move 9 units going to the right of -2 it falls at +7. So, the set of
integers will start from {-2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7}
Answer: {-2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7}
9 units to the right of -2
Explanation/ Solution:
As we move 9 units going to the right of -2 it falls at +7. So, the set of
