For which operations is the set {0, 1} closed? Choose all answers that are correct. A. multiplication B. division C. addition D. subtraction
Closed over multiplication in this problem would mean that if you computer 0*0, 0*1, or 1*1, then you would always get back as the answer one of the two elements in the set, that is you'd always get 0 or1. So, if you do all those multiplications, do you always get 0 or 1 back? Then, you have to test division next.
so a and d
@ineedurhelpnow under what topology?
On subtraction, then what would happen if you did the calculation 0 - 1? Would you get 0 or 1 as the answer?
@ineedurhelpnow You need to reconsider you answer of d.
ok then what do you think it would be
First, what is the number zero with one subtracted from it equal to? Is it 0 or 1 ?
-1
Yes. Is negative one a member of the original set?
So is the set closed under subtraction?
uhhhhhh i think
It is* not closed* under subtraction because we took two elements of the set, subtracted one from the other, and got an answer that was not in the set.
That leaves just A as the answer.
Question?
@Directrix
First, close this thread and then post the question in a new thread. Once you do that, I'm going to ask if you know how the set of whole numbers looks.
Which equations show that the set of whole numbers is closed under addition? Choose all answers that are correct. A. 0 + (–1) = –1 B. 1 + 1 = 2 C. 2 + 0 = 2 D. 2 + (–1) = 1
a. 0 + (-1)=-1 d.2+(-1)=1
@Directrix
ok can u just give me the answer this test is timed
WHOLE NUMBER Definition of Whole Numbers The numbers in the set {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, . . . . } are called whole numbers. In other words, whole numbers is the set of all counting numbers plus zero. http://www.icoachmath.com/math_dictionary/whole_numbers.html
please just tell me i know what a whole number is
Whole numbers are not negative. So, both of these are WRONG.
so its b,c,d
ok i got 45 more sec on this question
tellllllllllllllll meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
A is wrong because -1 is not a whole number.
ok i have 5 min on this question Which sets of numbers are closed under subtraction? Choose all answers that are correct. A. odd natural numbers B. rational numbers C. {0, 1} D. {0, 1, 2} can u just give me the answer that would help
@Directrix
HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP
@Directrix
I cannot feed you answers on this site because it is against the Code of Conduct.
well HELPPPPPPP and ppl do it all the time

ok
The rational numbers are closed under subtraction. There is no easy way to show that. B is correct.
What about this: C. {0, 1} What is the answer to 0 - 1 ? Is that answer a member of the given set?
-1
So, no. C is not the correct answer.
so it is d and b
So, far. we have that B is the only correct answer. But, we are not finished.
Numbers p and q are positive integers. Which statements are always true? Choose all answers that are correct. A. p + q is a positive integer B. p – q is a negative integer C. p • q is a positive integer D. is a positive integer
{0, 1, 2} What is the answer to 1-2 ? Is that a member of the given set?
-1
yasssssss it has to be more than one hun
yeah could you help with Numbers p and q are positive integers. Which statements are always true? Choose all answers that are correct. A. p + q is a positive integer B. p – q is a negative integer C. p • q is a positive integer D. is a positive intege
