Can you write every integer as the sum of two nonzero perfect squares?

No.First of all, you can't write negative numbers as sums of perfect squares at all - since all perfect squares are positive.Second, for natural numbers (1, 2, 3...) you may need up to 4 perfect squares: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange's_four-square_theoremNo.First of all, you can't write negative numbers as sums of perfect squares at all - since all perfect squares are positive.Second, for natural numbers (1, 2, 3...) you may need up to 4 perfect squares: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange's_four-square_theoremNo.First of all, you can't write negative numbers as sums of perfect squares at all - since all perfect squares are positive.Second, for natural numbers (1, 2, 3...) you may need up to 4 perfect squares: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange's_four-square_theoremNo.First of all, you can't write negative numbers as sums of perfect squares at all - since all perfect squares are positive.Second, for natural numbers (1, 2, 3...) you may need up to 4 perfect squares: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange's_four-square_theorem


Which numbers are NOT perfect squares?

In the complex field, every number is a square so there are no numbers that are not squares. If the domain is reduced to that of real numbers, any negative number is not a square. However, the term "square numbers" (not number's!) is often used to refer to perfect square numbers. These are numbers that are squares of integers. Therefore the squares of fractions or Irrational Numbers are non-squares.


What is the next number in the sequence 25 36 49 64?

81. They are the perfect squares of numbers starting from 5.81. They are the perfect squares of numbers starting from 5.81. They are the perfect squares of numbers starting from 5.81. They are the perfect squares of numbers starting from 5.


Are no perfect squares whole numbers?

By definition, ALL perfect squares are whole numbers!


Perfect squares?

Natural numbers which are the scales of some natural numbers are perfect squares


What is the smallest negative perfect square that is divisible by the four smallest prime numbers?

Perfect squares are positive. A smallest negative number doesn't exist. The four smallest prime numbers are 2, 3, 5 and 7. The smallest perfect square would have to be 2^2 x 3^2 x 5^2 x 7^2 or 44,100

What are numbers called that have square roots but are not a square number?

There is no specific name but they comprise the set of non-negative numbers other than perfect squares.


Numbers that have an odd number of factors are what?

perfect squares


Are there some numbers that can make a square?

All non-negative numbers can make a square. (Actually, even negative numbers can, but that is for higher mathematics). If you are interested in squares whose sides are whole numbers what yuo are looking for are called PERFECT SQUARES. These are numbers like 1*1 = 1 or 2*2 = 4, etc.


How many numbers between 30 and 50 are perfect squares?

Two. 36, and 49 are perfect squares.


What fractions are a perfect square?

None. Perfect squares, by definition, are the squares of counting numbers and these cannot be fractions.
