Can the conditional statement be written as a biconditional statement?
No, because the reverse statement may not result in a true statement.(A) If x is an integer then x*x is rational.(B) if x*x is rational then x is an integer.(B) is utter nonsense. x can be any rational number of even a square root of a rational number, for example, sqrt(2/3), and x*x will be rational.
What is a counter example of the conjecture a rational number is always an integer?
2/3 is a rational number but not an integer.
Can you give an example of an integer that is not rational why or why not?
No, all integers are rational, whole numbers.
Which statement is true Converting an integer to a fraction shows whether it is rational A negative fraction is never rational An integer numerator over a zero denominator is never rational?
Statement 1 is true but totally unnecessary. As integer is always a rational and you do not need to convert it to a fraction to determine whether or not it is rational. A negative fraction is can be rational or irrational. The fact that it is negative is irrelevant to its rationality. An integer number over a zero denominator is not defined and so cannot be rational or irrational or anything. It just isn't.
What statement is true if P is an Integer and Q is a nonzero integer?
Any fraction p/q where p is an integer and q is a non-zero integer is rational.

What number is rational but not an integer?
1/4 is an example.
Meaning of non integer rational number?
It is a number that can be expressed as a fraction but is NOT an integer. For example. 3 is an integer and it is rational since we can write 3/1, but 1/3 is not an integer and it is rational since we wrote it as a fraction or a ratio. Remember that a rational number is one that can be written as A/B where A and B are integers. Now if B is 1, which is certainly an integer, A/1 is rational but since A is an integer, A/1 is an integer.
What is an example of a number that is classified as an integer and a rational number but not a whole number?
Any negative integer.
What does the word contrapositive mean in math?
"contrapositive" refers to negating the terms of a statement and reversing the direction of inference. It is used in proofs. An example makes it easier to understand: "if A is an integer, then it is a rational number". The contrapositive would be "if A is not a rational number, then it cannot be an integer". The general form, then, given "if A, then B", is "if not B, then not A". Proving the contrapositive generally proves the original statement as well.
