Question: * R.1.26 \ was R.1.14 (was R.1.6) Of the numbers in the set {-sqrt(2), pi + sqrt(2), 1 / 2 + 10.3} which are counting numbers, which are rational numbers, which are irrational numbers and which are real numbers?
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Your solution:
Counting numbers: none
Rational numbers: 10.3
Irrational numbers: {-sqrt(2), pi + sqrt(2),
Real Numbers: ½, 10.3
The reason these numbers are placed in these catagories is because a counting number or a natural number is defined by the numbers in the set 1,2,3,4…
Rational numbers are defined as a number that can be expressed as a quotient a/b of two integers. 10.3 can also be expressed as a fraction. 10 1/3
Irrational numbers are defined as a decimal that neither repeats nor terminates. These occur naturally.
Real numbers are numbers that represent a quality upon a continuum.
