Question 271681: Each of the following inequalities is true for some values of x EXCEPT
A x < x^2 < x^3
B x < x^3 < x^2
C x^2 < x^3 < x
D x^3 < x < x^2
E x^3 < x^2 < x
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Each of the following inequalities is true for some values of x EXCEPT
A x < x^2 < x^3
B x < x^3 < x^2
C x^2 < x^3 < x
D x^3 < x < x^2
E x^3 < x^2 < x
A is true for x=2
B is true when x=-.5
D is true for x=-2
E is true for x= .5
So the only one left is C.
The cube of a number is never between the number and its square.
