What type of number is [tex]\bf{\sqrt 5}?[/tex] Select all that apply
[tex]\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{B. This problem has been solved!}}[/tex]
Let's start by taking a look at all the four sets of numbers.
A: Whole number
{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22...∞}
The set is shown above. To be honest, this is an infinitely small part of the number set; the whole number set would take FOREVER to type ;)
B: Integers
{∞...-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9...∞}
Wow, this set starts at negative infinity and ends at positive infinity!
C: Rational
This set consists of all integers, decimals, and fractions.
D: Irrational
That's where the desired number [tex]\bf{\sqrt{5}}[/tex] belongs!
