    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Numbers greater than 0 are positive?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Numbers greater than 0 are considered positive because positive numbers are any numbers greater than 0. In mathematics, positive numbers are values that are greater than zero and can be represented on the positive side of the number line. Therefore, any number greater than 0 is considered positive.

  • 4. 

    The number line has 2 positive ends?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The number line does not have positive ends. It extends infinitely in both the positive and negative directions. Therefore, it does not make sense to say that it has "positive ends".

    The numbers -3 and 3 are opposite because they have the same magnitude (absolute value) but different signs. In other words, one is positive and the other is negative. This is a common way to define opposite numbers in mathematics.
