Answer 1

The number \(-37\) can be classified as follows:

• Integer: Yes, \(-37\) is an integer because it is a whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero.
• Rational Number: Yes, \(-37\) is a rational number because it can be expressed as a fraction \(-37/1\).

The other classifications do not apply:

• Natural Number: No, natural numbers are positive integers (1, 2, 3, ...), so \(-37\) does not qualify.
• Whole Number: No, whole numbers include non-negative integers (0, 1, 2, 3, ...), so \(-37\) does not qualify.
• Irrational Number: No, irrational numbers cannot be expressed as a simple fraction and \(-37\) can.
• Imaginary Number: No, imaginary numbers are multiples of \(i\) (the imaginary unit) and \(-37\) is not one of those.

Therefore, the applicable classifications for \(-37\) are:

• Integer
• Rational Number
