A set of numbers is considered to be closed if and only if you take any 2 numbers and perform an operation on them, the answer will belong to the same set as the original numbers, than the set is closed under that operation.
If you add any 2 real numbers, your answer will be a real number, so the real number set is closed under addition.
If you divide any 2 whole numbers, your answer could be a repeating decimal, which is not a whole number, and is therefore not closed.
As for 0 and 3, the most specific set they belong to is the whole numbers (0, 1, 2, 3...)
If you add 0 and 3, your answer is 3, which is also a whole number. Therefore, yes 0 and 3 are closed under addition
To start with, the set of integers is a Group. This means that it is a set of elements (numbers) with a binary operation (addition) that combines any two elements in the set to form a third element. This Group, Z, satisfies four axioms: closure, associativity, identity and invertibility. that is, if x , y and z are integers, thenx + y is an integer (closure).(x + y) + z = x + (y + z) (associativity)there is an integer, denoted by 0, such that 0 + x = x + 0 = xthere is an integer, denoted by -x, such that x + (-x) = (-x) + x = 0.In addition, it is a Ring. A ring is an Abelian group (that is, addition is commutative: x + y = y + x) and it has a second binary operation (multiplication) that is defined on its elements. This second operation satisfies the axioms of closure, associativity and identity. It is also distributive over the first operation. That is,x*(y + z) = x*y + x*z
5 + (-5) = 0 -1.33 + 1.33 = 0 Inverse property of addition: For real numbers, a + = 0.
Usually, the identity of addition property is defined to be an axiom (which only specifies the existence of zero, not uniqueness), and the zero property of multiplication is a consequence of existence of zero, existence of an additive inverse, distributivity of multiplication over addition and associativity of addition. Proof of 0 * a = 0: 0 * a = (0 + 0) * a [additive identity] 0 * a = 0 * a + 0 * a [distributivity of multiplication over addition] 0 * a + (-(0 * a)) = (0 * a + 0 * a) + (-(0 * a)) [existence of additive inverse] 0 = (0 * a + 0 * a) + (-(0 * a)) [property of additive inverses] 0 = 0 * a + (0 * a + (-(0 * a))) [associativity of addition] 0 = 0 * a + 0 [property of additive inverses] 0 = 0 * a [additive identity] A similar proof works for a * 0 = 0 (with the other distributive law if commutativity of multiplication is not assumed).
Add two positive integers and you ALWAYS have a positive integers. The positive integers are closed under addition.
Addition identity.

+8 - 8 = 0 is an example of the inverse property of addition. Inverse Property of Addition-A number added to its opposite integer will always equal zero. (The order does not matter, since it is addition.) [Ex. 3 + (-3) = 0 or (-3) + 3 = 0]
The closure property of addition says that if you add together any two numbers from a set, you will get another number from the same set. If the sum is not a number in the set, then the set is not closed under addition.
No. For example, the square root of two plus (minus the square root of two) = 0, which is not an irrational number.
(4=-5)+5=5
closure property is the sum or product of any two real numbers is also a real numbers.EXAMPLE,4 + 3 = 7 The sum is real number6 + 8 = 14add me in facebook.. lynnethurbina@yahoo.com =]
In order to be a group with respect to addition, the integers must satisfy the following axioms: 1) Closure under addition 2) Associativity of addition 3) Contains the additive identity 4) Contains the additive inverses 1) The integers are closed under addition since the sum of any two integers is an integer. 2) The integers are associative with respect to addition since (a+b)+c = a+(b+c) for any integers a, b, and c. 3) The integer 0 is the additive identity since z+0 = 0+z = z for any integer z. 4) Each integer n has an additive inverse, namely -n since n+(-n) = -n+n = 0.
It provides closure under the binary operation of addition.
3-3=0
Commutative property: a + b = b + a; example: 4 + 3 = 3 + 4 Associative property: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c); example: (1 + 2) + 3 = 1 + (2 + 3) Closure property: The sum of two numbers of certain sets is again a number of the set. All of the above apply similarly to addition of fractions, addition of real numbers, and multiplication of whole numbers, fractions, or real numbers.
The set of rational number satisfies the following properties with regard to addition: for any three rational numbers x, y and z, · x + y is a rational number (closure under addition) · (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) (associative property of addition) · There is a rational number, 0, such that x + 0 = 0 + x = x (existence of additive identity) · There is a rational number, -x, such that x + (-x) = (-x) + x = 0 (existence of additive inverse) · x + y = y + x (Abelian or commutative property of addition)
