Raising a whole number to a power means: 

             Take (a number of things) a number of times, and then possibly
             take that big number of things a number of times again.

Raising a fraction to an exponent means: 

             Take a piece of (a piece of one thing), and then possibly
              take just a piece of that smaller piece.

I need help ASAP <br> 120&gt;10n+20
Burka [1]

Answer:n = 10 can make the inequality true

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is

120 greater than or equal to 10n + 20. This means that the least value of n that would make the inequality true would be 10.

If we substitute n = 10 into the right hand side of the given inequality, it would result to 120.

So n = 10 can make the inequality true.

Flura [38]

Answer:

\sqrt{5} = Irrational

6 = Natural, Whole, Integer, Rational

\frac{1}{2} = Rational

-2 = Integers, Rational

Explanation:

See attached photo! (it is hard to explain in words haha)

      Side note: All natural numbers are rational numbers, but not all rational numbers are natural numbers (this applies differently to all sections, like all integers are whole, but not all whole are integers, etc)

      Side note #2: Whole numbers are just natural numbers AND zero

Hope this is correct (or at least helps), have a nice day! :D
