Identify the number as rational or irrational. Explain. -√127

OpenStudy (jlastino):

It's rational . You are asked to find the negative of sqrt127 not sqrt -127 So -sqrt127 would be -11.27

OpenStudy (jlastino):

All numbers that can be written as an integer are rational numbers.

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

-11.27 is only an approximation \[-\sqrt{127} \] Cannot be written as a ratio of two rational numbers therefore -√127 is Irrational {@ Jlastino it is real though}
