Algebra-1

The number that is within the range is: -7.

 

Given range:

b < -5 and -10 < b < 10

 

To find a number that satisfies both conditions, we must determine the intersection of these two ranges. The first inequality, b < -5, restricts b to values less than -5. The second inequality, -10 < b < 10, restricts b to values between -10 and 10.

 

The intersection of these ranges is: -10 < b < -5.

 

This means b must be greater than -10 and less than -5.

 

Evaluating the options:
