Answer Key

  1. b) 0.75
  2. False
  3. Whole Numbers
  4. Example: √2
  5. b) {π, √7, 0}
  6. True
  7. Integers
  8. A natural number is a positive integer starting from 1, whereas an integer includes both positive and negative whole numbers and zero.
  9. b) -7
  10. True
  11. Q
  12. Zero is a whole number because it is non-negative, but natural numbers traditionally start from 1.
  13. b) √-1
  14. True
  15. π ≈ 3.14, √2 ≈ 1.414; they are irrational because they cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers.
