<h3>Answer: Comelia is correct</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

We're told that "Christopher  says that all Rational (Q) numbers are Whole (W)", which makes Christopher not correct. Some rational numbers are whole numbers. For instance, the number 7 = 7/1 is rational and it's a whole number as well.

However something like 1/2 is rational, but it's not a whole number. A whole number doesn't have any fractional or decimal part to it. It can be thought of the number of something.

Comelia is correct because all whole numbers are rational. If x is some whole number, then x = x/1 is rational as well. Replace x with any whole number you want. Her statement does not work in reverse as shown above.

When drawing a Venn diagram, the circle for "whole numbers" will be entirely inside the circle for "rational numbers", and not the other way around.

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a cube's volume is its side length cubed. So to get the side length when given the volume, you can take the cube root of the volume. \sqrt[3]{125}  = 5 inches.
