If x > 1 and y < -2, then which of the following must be true ?	Choose the correct choice from the following answers:	A) x/y > 1	B) x/y < -1	C) x/y < 0	D) x + y > 0	E) xy > 0
Pick x=3, y = -3   A) x/y &gt; 1 - Incorrect as x/y = -1   B) x/y &lt; -1 - Incorrect as x/y = -1   C) x/y &lt; 0 -Correct. It will hold for all values x &gt; 2 and y &lt; -2 as x/y = -1 &lt; 0   D) x + y &gt; 0 - Incorrect. x + y = 0   E) xy &gt; 0 - Incorrect. XY = -9 which is less than zero.   x/y &lt; -1 should be the answer.
