Of the following numbers, which is an integer but does not belong in either of the subsets of integers: −13

Question

, 0, or 13?(1 point)

Answer 1

To determine which number is an integer but does not belong to either subset of integers, we typically consider the subsets of positive integers and negative integers.

• Positive integers: 1, 2, 3, ...
• Negative integers: -1, -2, -3, ...

Now, let's examine the given numbers:

• −13: This is a negative integer.
• 0: This is neither positive nor negative; it's often considered neutral.
• 13: This is a positive integer.

Since 0 is an integer but does not fit into either the positive or negative integer subsets, the answer is 0.
