Real Number: Determine if −10 is a real number.A real number is any number that can be found on the number line, including both positive and negative numbers, as well as zero. Since −10 can be located on the number line, it is a real number.
Irrational Number: Determine if −10 is an irrational number.An irrational number is a number that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction or as a terminating or repeating decimal. Since −10 can be expressed as a fraction (−10/1) and does not have an infinite non-repeating decimal expansion, it is not an irrational number.
Whole Number: Determine if −10 is a whole number.Whole numbers are the set of non-negative integers, which include 0,1,2,3, and so on. Since −10 is negative, it is not a whole number.
Integer: Determine if −10 is an integer.Integers are the set of whole numbers and their opposites (negative whole numbers), which include …,−3,−2,−1,0,1,2,3,…. Since −10 is included in this set, it is an integer.
