What are the integers?

An integer is a member of the set of positive whole numbers {1, 2, 3, . . . }, negative whole numbers {-1, -2, -3, . . . }, and zero {0}.


What sets are closed under division?

For example:* The set of real numbers, excluding zero * The set of rational numbers, excluding zero * The set of complex numbers, excluding zero You can also come up with other sets, for example: * The set {1} * The set of all powers of 2, with an integer exponent, so {... 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...}


WHAT SET OF NUMBERS IS MOST REASONABLE TO DESCRIBE A PERSONS HAT SIZE?

First think about how they label hat sizes. Example sizes can be 10, 10 1/4, 10 1/2, 11, etc. What set of numbers do these fall in? HInt: it's one of these: Natural Numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, ... Whole numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... Integers: ..., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... Rational: Any number that can be written as a fraction


The sum of a natural number n and its square equals the product of the first three prime numbers. What is n?

n + n^2 = (2)(3)(5) n + n^2 = 30 n^2 + n - 30 = 0 (n - 5)(n + 6) = 0 n - 5 = 0 or n + 6 = 0 n = 5 or n = -6 Since -6 is not a natural number, the answer is n = 5 Remember: 1 is neither prime nor composite number, and 2 is the only even prime number. -6 is an integer, but is not a natural number The set of natural numbers is: N = {1, 2, 3, 4,...} The set of whole numbers is: W = {0, 1, 2, 3,...} The set of all integers is: I = {..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...} The set of all Rational numbers is: Q = {a/b|a,b are integers, and b is different than 0} The decimal names for elements of Q are: (1) terminating, (2) nonterminating with a repeating block Examples: 1/2 = 0.5 and 1/3 = 0.333... The set of all irrational numbers is: S = {x|x has a decimal name which is nonterminating and doesn't have a repeating block} Examples of irrational numbers include 0.101001000..., pi and square root of 2 Q and S have no common elements. All these numbers are called real numbers.

How can the median in a set of numbers be 0?

the median is the middle in a set of numbers so if you had a set of 5 numbers like -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2 the middle number would be zero.

Is every whole number a natural number?

No, zero is a whole number, but not a natural number.The natural numbers are the set {0, 1, 2, 3, ...} (or the set {1, 2, 3, ...})The whole numbers are the set {..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...}The set of whole numbers has twice as many members as the set of natural numbers, so the answer to your question is NO.


What is the element of intersection of the set of whole numbers and the set of natural numbers?

The element of intersection between the set of whole numbers and the set of natural numbers is the set of all natural numbers themselves. Whole numbers include all natural numbers (0, 1, 2, 3, ...) and the number 0, while natural numbers typically start from 1 (1, 2, 3, ...). Therefore, the intersection consists of the natural numbers when excluding 0.


Can a set of integers include positive and negative numbers?

Yes. Integers are the set of numbers defined by {…, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, …}. All positive and negative numbers with no fractional part, as well as 0, are included.


What is the set of integers between -3 and 2?

The set of integers between -3 and 2 includes the numbers -2, -1, 0, 1. These integers are all the whole numbers that fall strictly between -3 and 2, not including the endpoints. Thus, the set can be expressed as {-2, -1, 0, 1}.


What is the numbers -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 consisting of negative and positive numbers and zero?

It is the set of integers.

What are the properties of an integer?

Integers are a set of numbers including natural numbers (1, 2, 3...) their opposites (-1, -2, -3...) and 0.


What is it when all whole numbers and their opposites are?
