Give ten examples of natural number are closed under subtraction and division?
You can give hundreds of examples, but a single counterexample shows that natural numbers are NOT closed under subtraction or division. For example, 1 - 2 is NOT a natural number, and 1 / 2 is NOT a natural number.
Why is the set of positive whole numbers closed under subtraction?
The set of positive whole numbers is not closed under subtraction! In order for a set of numbers to be closed under some operation would mean that if you take any two elements of that set and use the operation the resulting "answer" would also be in the original set.26 is a positive whole number.40 is a positive whole number.However 26-40 = -14 which is clearly not a positive whole number. So positive whole numbers are not closed under subtraction.
Which sets of numbers are closed under subtraction?
To be closed under an operation, when that operation is applied to two member of a set then the result must also be a member of the set. Thus the sets ℂ (Complex numbers), ℝ (Real Numbers), ℚ (Rational Numbers) and ℤ (integers) are closed under subtraction. ℤ+ (the positive integers), ℤ- (the negative integers) and ℕ (the natural numbers) are not closed under subtraction as subtraction can lead to a result which is not a member of the set.
Under what operation is the set of positive rational numbers not closed?
Subtraction.
Are rational numbers are closed under addition subtraction multiplication and division?
They are closed under all except that division by zero is not defined.
Is a counting number closed under subtraction?
No.
Are real numbers closed under addition and subtraction?
Real numbers are closed under addition and subtraction. To get a number outside the real number system you would have to use square root.
Which set of numbers is closed under subtraction?
A set of real numbers is closed under subtraction when you take two real numbers and subtract , the answer is always a real number .
Are polynomial expressions closed under subtraction?
Yes they are closed under multiplication, addition, and subtraction.
Is the set of irrational numbers closed under subtraction?
No; here's a counterexample to show that the set of irrational numbers is NOT closed under subtraction: pi - pi = 0. pi is an irrational number. If you subtract it from itself, you get zero, which is a rational number. Closure would require that the difference(answer) be an irrational number as well, which it isn't. Therefore the set of irrational numbers is NOT closed under subtraction.
Why has death rates decreased?
I Think is natural number a closed set under subtraction.
Are rational numbers closed under subtraction?
Yes. They are closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication. The rational numbers WITHOUT ZERO are closed under division.
Give ten examples of natural number are closed under subtraction and division?
You can give hundreds of examples, but a single counterexample shows that natural numbers are NOT closed under subtraction or division. For example, 1 - 2 is NOT a natural number, and 1 / 2 is NOT a natural number.
Is the set of integers closed under subtraction?
yes, because an integer is a positive or negative, rational, whole number. when you subject integers, you still get a positive or negative, rational, whole number, which means that under the closure property of real numbers, the set of integers is closed under subtraction.
Are integers closed under subtraction?
Yes.
Is natural numbers a closed set under subtraction?
No.A set is closed under subtraction if when you subtract any two numbers in the set, the answer is always a member of the set.The natural numbers are 1,2,3,4, ... If you subtract 5 from 3 the answer is -2 which is not a natural number.
Are rational numbers closed under division multiplication addition or subtraction?
Rational numbers are closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication. They are not closed under division, since you can't divide by zero. However, rational numbers excluding the zero are closed under division.
