No.
Consider:
5 is a whole number
-3 is a whole number.
Their sum is 2, which is notgreater than one of the addends (5).

Strictly speaking, non-negative.
3 + 0 = 3 is not greater than 3

Consider:
5 is a whole number
-3 is a whole number.
Their sum is 2, which is not greater than one of the addends (5).

Is the difference between two integers always smaller than either on of the numbers in the difference?
Yes
Which one is more irrational or rational?
You can choose an irrational number to be either greater or smaller than any given rational number. On the other hand, if you mean which set is greater: the set of irrational numbers is greater. The set of rational numbers is countable infinite (beth-0); the set of irrational numbers is uncountable infinite (more specifically, beth-1 - there are larger uncountable numbers as well).
Is the range for all quadratic functions the same as the domain?
No. The domain is usually the set of Real numbers whereas the range is a subset comprising Real numbers which are either all greater than or equal to a minimum value (or LE a maximum value).
Are imaginary numbers rational or irrational?
Imaginary numbers are not intrinsically rational or irrational.Of course, all real numbers are either rational or irrational numbers.Imaginary numbers are not real numbers.Imaginary numbers have a real part and an imaginary part, sometimes written like z=x+i y.The two parts, i.e. the x and the y, are real numbers. As real numbers, they are either rational or irrational. Its just that the two parts of a complex number may both be either rational or irrational or one may be rational and the other irrational. One could always make up a new name for these cases, but right now there is no such classification.
Is every whole number greater than one either prime or can be expressed as the sum of primes in exactly one way?
Yes it is called the fundamental theorem of arithmeticand it says that every whole number greater than one, the natural numbers, can be written as a unique product of primes. Dr. Chuck Mathdoc
The sum of two numbers is always greater than either of the two numbers?
Not true if either of the numbers is negative.
Is the sum of2 whole numbers always greater than either addend?
less than added: 1 x 1 = 1 1 + 1 = 2 Equal to added: 2 x 2 = 4 2 + 2 = 4
Is the product of tow numbers is greater than either number?
Not always.
The sum of two numbers is greater than either number?
The sum of two numbers will almost always be greater than either number. The only exception would be when dealing with two negative numbers.
Is the product of two numbers is always greater than either number. a math question.?
No. If one of the numbers is 0 it is less; if one of the numbers is 1 it is the same as one of them; otherwise the product is greater than either
Is a multiple always greater than the number?
No, not when negative numbers are involved. For example, -2 is a multiple of both -1 and 1 and is not greater than either.
Is the product of two mixed numbers always greater than either number?
Yes, if both the numbers have the same sign. But not if only one of them is negative.
Explain why second partial product is always greater than the first partial priduct when you multiply two 2-digit numbers?
The product of two digit numbers is always greater than either.
Is the sum of two numbers is always greater than either of the two numbers?
Consider 4 cases 1. The sum of any two positive numbers is clearly greater than either number. 2. The sum of any two negative numbers is LESS than either of the two numbers. ( (Look at -2+(-3)=-5 .) 3. The sum of any negative number and a positive number is always greater than the negative number but less than the positive number. (Look at -2+3=1, or -5+3=-2) 4. The sum of any number and 0 is that number so it is not greater. So it appears that the sum of any two numbers is greater than either of the two numbers when the two number are both positive.
Are numbers closes to zero less or greater?
Numbers closer to zero can be either greater or lesser depending on what other numbers they are compared to.
Why the quotient of two fractions is always greater than either fraction?
the quotient is always greater than the either fraction because any time when you multiply either number with 1 you will get the whole entire universe heheheheh
Which is greater prime or composite numbers?
There are more composite numbers than prime numbers, but there is no prime or composite number so great that you can't find a greater one of either kind.
