There are multiple uses and application of negative numbers. They are used on a daily basis when describing temperature and in banking. For example, an overdrawn balance will be reported in negative amounts.
It the two rational numbers have different signs, then the answer will be negative, otherwise it will be positive.
Never.
The quotient is negative.
Let x and y be two rational numbers. If both x and y are negative then their sum will be negative.If only one of them, say x, is positive (so that y is negative), and if the absolute value (or magnitude) of y is greater than x then their sum will be negative.
Find the arithmetic average of the two rational numbers. It will be a rational number and will be between the two numbers.
It the two rational numbers have different signs, then the answer will be negative, otherwise it will be positive.
No.
No.
A negative number can indeed be rational. A rational number is defined as any number that can be expressed as the quotient of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. For example, -3/4 and -2 are both negative rational numbers. Thus, negative numbers can be rational as long as they fit this definition.
No, it is not true.
Yes, it is.
Never.
-2 -203 - 6,942 / 7,653
The quotient is negative.
Let x and y be two rational numbers. If both x and y are negative then their sum will be negative.If only one of them, say x, is positive (so that y is negative), and if the absolute value (or magnitude) of y is greater than x then their sum will be negative.
No, the square root of negative 108 is not rational. The square root of a negative number involves imaginary numbers, specifically it can be expressed as ( \sqrt{-108} = \sqrt{108}i ), where ( i ) is the imaginary unit. Since rational numbers are defined as numbers that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers, and imaginary numbers cannot be represented in this way, the square root of negative 108 is not rational.
Yes, negative 3.56 is a rational number. Rational numbers can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, and negative 3.56 can be represented as -356/100. Since both -356 and 100 are integers, negative 3.56 meets the criteria for being a rational number.
