ACTIVITY 4
A. Answer the following.
1. Complete the statement using always, sometimes, or never
Explain
a. A real number is
a rational number.
b. An irrational number is
a real number.
c. A negative integer is
an irrational number.
2. What is a rational number? Use your own words.
3. How is the decimal form of a rational number different from the
decimal form of an irrational number?
4. In the definition of rational number, we say, "a number that can be
put in the form where a and b are integers and b0." Why could
we not say, "a number of the form where a and b are integers and
b0?"
5. Why do we have to classify number

Answers & Comments
Answer:
1.B
2.a rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integer
3.Irrational numbers can be represented in the decimal form but not in fractions which implies that the irrational numbers cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers. rational numbers have infinite non-repeating digits after the decimal point.
5. we want to make sure that everyone has an understanding of what specific numbers are called and what they mean.
