Answer:

real , rational and integer

Step-by-step explanation:

it is an integer because all the negative numbers and positive numbers belong to the group integers

it is a rational number because rational numbers are divided into 3 groups which are natural numbers , whole numbers, and integers

it is a real number because real numbers are divided into two rational and irrational numbers

number system

real numbers imaginory numbers

rational numbers irrational numbers

whole numbers ,natural numbers, integers

What number groups does -2 belong in?

$\diamond\large\blue\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer and How to Solve:-}}}}\diamond$

First, let's take a look at some number groups.

The first one is:-

❖ Natural numbers. This set consists of positive numbers only.

◈ Example:- 4, 6, 12, 436... any positive number is included in the "Natural numbers" set.

The next set is:-

❖ Whole numbers. This set includes all natural numbers plus zero.

Negative numbers are still not included.

The next set is:-

❖ Integers. This set includes all whole numbers plus negative numbers. Fractions are not included in this set.

The next set does include fractions, and it's called

❖ Rational numbers. This set consists of integers and, as I mentioned before, fractions.

Another number set is as follows:-

❖ Irrational numbers. This set includes numbers that cannot be expressed as fractions, like $\bold{\sqrt{2}}$ , or you may have heard of $\pi$ , which is also irrational, meaning that we cannot express π as a fraction, because it has an infinite number of digits after the decimal point.

Finally, the set that includes all numbers (or almost all) is called:-

❖ Real numbers. This set includes rational, irrational numbers, integers... almost everything.

There's another set of numbers:-

❖ Imaginary numbers. This set consists of numbers that were imagined. Such numbers come in handy when it comes to solving some equations, like $\bold{x^2=-1}$ . They are also called "complex numbers".

Now that we know all the sets of numbers, let's answer this question:-

$\textsf{ What number groups does -2 belong in?}$

First, it's negative, so it's not a whole number or a natural one.

It is an integer, because negative numbers are included in the "integers" set.

It can be expressed as a fraction, which is as follows:-

❖ $\bold{-\dfrac{2}{1}}$

So we conclude that -2 is:-

an integer ✓
a rational number ✓
a real number ✓

the price of a 14 oz box of crackers is $2.94. the price of a 20 oz box is $3.60. what is the difference in price per ounce ?

solong [7]

Answer:

The difference in price per ounce of the boxes is $0.03 or 3 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide each dollar amount by the ounces. The answer to $2.94 divided by 14 is 21 cents. $3.60 divided by 20 is 18 cents. Subtract 18 cents from 21 cents to get 3 cents.

What is the sum or difference?

dlinn [17]

1. Ans: Option (B) $-6x^4$

Explanation:
Given: $2x^4 - 8x^4$
Take the common out:
=> $x^4(2 - 8)$

Hence: => $[tex]-6x^4$ [/tex] (Option B)

2. Ans: Option (D) $-3y^5$

Explanation:
Given: $6y^5 - 9y^5$
Take the common term(s) out:
=> $y^5(6-9)$

Hence: => $-3y^5$ (Option D)

3. Ans: Option (B) $9x^2 - 12x + 6$ quadratic trinomial

Explanation:
Given: $6 - 12x + 13x^2 - 4x^2$

The standard form of polynomial function must have the highest powered value at the start, then the second highest and so on.

=> $13x^2 - 4x^2 - 12x + 6$
=> $9x^2 - 12x + 6$ (Option B)

4. Ans: Option (C) $7.3x^2 + 0.8x + 1.3$

Explanation:
In order to find the total number of Common and Endler's guppies, you need to add both Common and Endler's guppies' polynomials, as follows:

Common guppies: $3.1x^2 +6.0x + 0.3$ 
Endler's guppies: $4.2x^2 - 5.2x + 1.0$
(add both)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Total number: $7.3x^2 +0.8x + 1.3$
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Hence the ans is Option(C) $7.3x^2 + 0.8x + 1.3$

5. Ans: Option (D) $2x^2(133 - 18 \pi )$

Explanation:
First let's find the total area of the yard:
Total Area of the Yard = 14x * 19x = $266x^2$

Now the area of the circular fountain:
Area of the Circular Fountain = $\pi r^2$
Since, r=6x
Therefore,
Area of the Circular Fountain = $\pi (6x)^2 = 36 \pi x^2$

Now the final Area of the yard would be:
Final area of the Yard = Total Area of the Yard - Area of the Circular Fountain
Final area of the Yard = $266x^2$ - $36 \pi x^2$
=> Final area of the Yard = $2x^2(133 - 18 \pi)$ (Option D)

6. Ans: Option (A) $56x^2$

Explanation:
First let's find the total area of the lot:
Total Area of the lot= 6x * 10x = $60x^2$

Now the area of the stadium:
Area of the stadium = 1x * 4x = $4x^2$

Now the final Area of the lot would be:
Final area of the lot= Total Area of the lot - Area of the stadium
Final area of the lot= $60x^2$ - $4x^2$
=> Final area of the lot = $56x^2$ (Option A)
