The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the statements is true, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Statement I: \( \sqrt{9} - \sqrt{6} > \sqrt{6} - \sqrt{3} \) 1. **Calculate \( \sqrt{9} \), \( \sqrt{6} \), and \( \sqrt{3} \)**: - \( \sqrt{9} = 3 \) - \( \sqrt{6} \approx 2.45 \) - \( \sqrt{3} \approx 1.73 \) 2. **Substitute the values into the inequality**: - Left side: \( 3 - 2.45 = 0.55 \) - Right side: \( 2.45 - 1.73 = 0.72 \) 3. **Compare the two sides**: - \( 0.55 > 0.72 \) is **false**. Thus, Statement I is **not true**. ### Statement II: \( \sqrt{6} - \sqrt{9} > \sqrt{3} - \sqrt{5} \) 1. **Calculate \( \sqrt{5} \)**: - \( \sqrt{5} \approx 2.24 \) 2. **Substitute the values into the inequality**: - Left side: \( 2.45 - 3 = -0.55 \) - Right side: \( 1.73 - 2.24 = -0.51 \) 3. **Compare the two sides**: - \( -0.55 > -0.51 \) is **false**. Thus, Statement II is also **not true**. ### Conclusion: Both statements are false.
