Answer
(a) $y<0$
(b) $z>1$
(c) $b\leq8$
(d) $0 < w \leq 17$
(e) $|y-\pi| \geq 2$
Work Step by Step
(a) Since y is negative, $y<0$
(b) Since z is greater than 1, $z>1$
(c) Since b is at most 8, it's less than or equal to 8: $b\leq8$
(d) w is positive (>0) and is less than or equal to 17, so:
$0 < w \leq 17$
(e) Since y is at least 2 units away from $\pi$, their absolute value difference must be greater or equal to 2: $|y-\pi| \geq 2$
