<h3>Answer: set of rational numbers, set of real numbers</h3>

Explanation:

The number -1/2 is rational as it is a fraction or ratio of two integers (-1 and 2). We can never have 0 in the denominator. Since it is rational, it means the number is not irrational. Recall that "irrational" means "not rational", so it is the opposite of rational.

-1/2 = -0.5 is not a whole number as it has a fractional or decimal portion. This means -1/2 is not an integer either, nor is it a natural number. The negative portion is another reason to exclude -1/2 from the list of whole numbers and natural numbers.

But we can say that -1/2 = -0.5 is a real number. Any number you encountered so far is a real number until you get to the complex numbers.

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the equation for direct variation is y=kx where y varies directly with x and k is the constant of proportionality. If we take any listed coordinate point, we can determine the value of k. I will use (20,120) as an example:

y=kx\\\\120=k(20)\\\\6=k

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is 6

Under her cell phone plan, Lily pays a flat cost of $55.50 per month and $4 per
TEA [102]

Answer:

Equation : y = 4x + 55.50

x = 1.9 gigabytes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Flat fee per month = $55.50

Cost per gigabyte = $4

Let,

x be the number of gigabytes.

y be the total cost

y = 4x + 55.50

Lily wants to keep her bill $63.10

63.10 = 4x + 55.50

63.10 - 55.50 = 4x

4x = 7.60

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{7.60}{4}\\x=1.9

Hence,

Equation : y = 4x + 55.50

x = 1.9 gigabytes
