The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given inequalities and the expressions for Quantity A and Quantity B. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the ranges for x and y:** - From the problem, we know that: \[ 98 < x < 102 \] \[ 103 < y < 107 \] 2. **Determine the maximum and minimum values:** - The maximum value of \( x \) is just under 102, and the minimum value of \( y \) is just over 103. Thus, we can conclude: \[ x < 102 \quad \text{and} \quad y > 103 \] 3. **Compare y and x:** - Since \( y \) is always greater than \( x \) (because the smallest \( y \) can be is just over 103 and the largest \( x \) can be is just under 102), we can write: \[ y - x > 0 \] 4. **Define Quantity A and Quantity B:** - Quantity A is defined as: \[ \text{Quantity A} = y - x \] - Quantity B is defined as: \[ \text{Quantity B} = |y - x| \] 5. **Evaluate the relationship between Quantity A and Quantity B:** - Since we established that \( y - x > 0 \), it follows that: \[ |y - x| = y - x \] - Therefore, we can conclude: \[ \text{Quantity A} = \text{Quantity B} \] 6. **Final conclusion:** - Since both quantities are equal, we can state: \[ \text{Quantity A} = \text{Quantity B} \] ### Final Answer: Both quantities are equal.
