Can irrational numbers cannot be represented by points on the real number line?
These number can also be represented on real line.
Does real number line correspond to an irrational number?
No. The real number line corresponds to rational AND irrational numbers.
Do irrational contain decimals?
An irrational number can be represented by a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal.
Is -5 a irrational number?
No, -5 is not an irrational number. Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be represented as the quotient of two integers. Since -5 is already an integer, it is rational.
Define and give example of irrational numbers?
an irrational number is any real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio a/b, where a and bare integers, with b nonzero, and is therefore not a rational number.Informally, this means that an irrational number cannot be represented as a simple fraction. Irrational numbers are those real numbers that cannot be represented as terminating or repeating decimals. As a consequence of Cantor's proof that the real numbers are uncountable (and the rationals countable) it follows that almost all real numbers are irrational.[1]When the ratio of lengths of two line segments is irrational, the line segments are also described as being incommensurable By Paul Philip S.
