Classify each real number as a natural number, whole number, integer, rational number, irrational number, and/or real number. If the number is a rational number, write it in fractional form. If the number is irrational, approximate its value to two decimal places. (See Objective 1.) 91. 12.5 92. -17.5 93. - 11 3 94. 11 5 95. $96 billion: the cost of the damage from hurricane Katrina in Louisiana in 2005 96. 4160 mi—the length of the Great Wall of China, the world’s longest man-made structure 97. 6.3 98. -3.47 99. 112 100. -136 101. 1.37%: interest rate for a 12-month certificate of deposit at Ally bank 102. 5.75%: a 30-yr mortgage rate 103. -π 104. 131 105. -1293 ft: elevation of the Dead Sea 106. -86 m: elevation of Death Valley Graph each number on a real number line.

A decimal that doesn’t terminate is an irrational number. 10. The sum of a number and its additive inverse is 1. Practice Makes Perfect! Classify each number as a natural number, whole number, integer, rational number, irrational number, and /or real number. If the number is a rational number, write it in fractional form. If the number is irrational, approximate its value to two decimal places.

(See Objective 1.) 33. A rational number that is not an integer 34. A rational number that is an integer 35. An irrational number between 2 and 3 36. An irrational number between –2 and –1 37. A rational number between –3 and –4 38. A rational number between 4 and 5 39. An integer between 13 and 16 40. An integer between 15 and 110 Graph each number on a real number line.
