Respuesta :

ANSWER

2. All whole numbers are integers.

4. All natural numbers are rational numbers.



EXPLANATION

1. All real numbers are natural numbers
FALSE

[tex] - 2[/tex]

is a real number but it is not a natural number.




2. All whole numbers are integers.

TRUE.

The set whole numbers is a subset of the set of integers.


3. All integers are whole numbers.

FALSE

[tex] - 2[/tex]
is an integer, but it is not a whole number.


4. All natural numbers are rational numbers.

TRUE

The set of natural numbers is a subset of the set of rational numbers.

Using the number sets, it is found that the correct statements are:

  • All whole numbers are integers.
  • All natural numbers are rational numbers.

------------------

  • Whole numbers: Also called natural, set of numbers including all positive numbers and 0, so: {0,1,2,...}
  • Integer numbers: Number without decimals, that can be positive of negative, so: {...,-2,-1,0,1,2,....}
  • Rational numbers: Integer plus decimals that can be represented by fractions, that is, they either have a pattern, or have a finite number of decimal digits, for example, 0, 2, 0,45(finite number of decimal digits), 0.3333(3 repeating is the pattern), 0.32344594459(4459 repeating is the pattern).
  • Irrational numbers: Decimal numbers that are not represented by patterns, that is, for example, 0.1033430290339.
  • Real numbers: Rational plus irrational.

------------------

Statement 1: All real numbers are natural numbers.

Real numbers include decimals, for example, so this statement is false.

------------------

Statement 2: All whole numbers are integers.

  • Whole numbers: {0,1,2,...}
  • Integers: whole numbers plus negatives.
  • Thus, yes, all whole numbers are integers, and this option is correct.

------------------

Statement 3: All integers are whole numbers.

False, as integers contain negative values, which are not whole.

------------------

Statement 4: All natural numbers are rational numbers.

  • Rational: Whole(natural + negatives) + fractions.

Thus, yes, all natural numbers are rational, and this option is correct.
