Is a negative number unreal?
No, they are quite real. It is just that in some situations it makes sense to use negative numbers, in others not.
How do you decide the increment to use when numbering a graph?
It depends; there is no right or wrong answer. Take into account the size of the numbers involved, the amount of space you have, and the type of numbers that would make sense, both with the numbers involved and in a practical sense - your numbers may all be multiples of seven, but don't make it harder than it needs to be. There are honestly a countless number of variables involved, so mostly it's up to you to decide what makes sense.
Are there more odd numbers less than 50 than even numbers?
Let's assume for a moment we're not thinking about negative numbers. Only counting numbers from 0-49, there is the same number even as odd so the answer is no. If you didn't include 0, then the answer would be yes. If you do include negative numbers, then there are an infinite number of both odd and even numbers. In this case it doesn't seem to make sense to say there are more odd numbers than even numbers so the answer is no. In short: No. Yes if it's only 1-49.
What is the set of whole numbers closed by?
If you mean the set of non-negative integers ("whole numbers" is a bit ambiguous in this sense), it is closed under addition and multiplication. If you mean "integers", the set is closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication.
Can aleph -1 exist?
Since the aleph numbers refer to cardinality of sets, aleph -1 would not make any sense. Not sure what a negative cardinality might mean?
What is one negative effect that can come from applying modern values to a historical event?
If you add the modern values to it it wont make sense
How do you find the domain and range of log5x and y5x?
The domain is the set of values that x may take that gives back an answer that makes sense. The range is the set of values that are possible results of the function. the "log" function does not accept 0 or negative values on its domain and returns negative, zero and positive numbers (ie all real values). The next function does not appear properly but you could figure it out

What does a non-real solution suggest when using the quadratic equation?
That really depends on the situation. Just as there are cases where fractional numbers make sense and others where they don't, and just as there are cases where negative numbers make sense and others where they dont, likewise, there are situations in which complex numbers (with an imaginary part) make sense, and others in which they don't. In many practical cases they don't make sense; in this case, the non-real solution is an indication that there is no practical solution. Example: Use the quadratic formula to determine at what time an object, thrown upwards, will reach a certain height. If you get a complex solution (the discriminant is negative), this means the object will NEVER reach the specified height; it will fall back down before it reaches the desired height. In this case, the variable "time" can only have real values - imaginary values don't make physical sense. However, please note that there are also situations in which complex numbers DO make sense.
Why does it not make sense to use negative numbers when talking about dimensions of shapes polygons?
an object cannot take up a negative amount of space
Why does lambda not assume negative values?
There are many different contexts in which lambda is used. It is not possible to make sense of the question without knowing the context.
How are negative numbers are used in the stock market?

Why don't negative values make sense?
It depends on the type of problem you are talking about. For example, in problems just concerning numbers and no units or words, negatives would make sense and could be logical. However, in word problems, it would obviously be illogical and absurd to answer -5 when asked, per se, how many miles Johnny has walked, or how many oranges Suzie has.
What 2 whole numbers are between 91?
The question does not make sense because "between" implies two values. There is only one given in the question.

In a coordinate graph of two related variables when does it make sense to connect the points?
When the data on the graph is continuous,it does make sense to connect the points on the graph of 2 related variables.
