Respuesta :

x - 3 <  y + 3 - 1

x - 3  < y + 2



hmm im confused  Are you sure its not  y + 2 exceeds x by what amount?

Answer:

x + 2 exceeds y by 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

x-3 is 1 less than y + 3,

⇒ [tex]x - 3 + 1 = y + 3[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x - 2 = y + 3 ----(1)[/tex]

We have to find out :

x + 2 exceeds y by what amount

That is, (x + 2) - y

Add 4 on both sides of equation (1),

We get,

[tex]x + 2 = y + 7[/tex]

⇒  [tex]( x + 2 ) - y = 7[/tex]
