Which of the following is a NOT a real number?
Which of the following is a NOT a real number?
Tap to reveal answer
By definition, a real number is one that is NOT imaginary. Imaginary numbers are numbers that, when squared, give a negative result.
So, the correct answer choice for the above question must be one that is, in fact, an imaginary number.
Using the above defintion, we are able to identify only one of the answer choices as a number that, when squared, gives a negative result. This is 
. When we take the square of 
, we get 
, ultimately, satisfying our definition of an imaginary number, and giving us the correct answer choice.

Recall that the Commutative Propery of Addition states:
It follows that:
To help you tell the difference between commutative, associative, and distributive just remember what the words themselves mean.
When you commute you go from one place to another. With commutative properties, numbers are moving from one position to another.
When you associate with someone you are connected or grouped with them. The associative properties involve moving parentheses so that different numbers are grouped together, but they are not changing positions.
When you distribute things you are handing them out. With the distributive property, the number outside the parentheses is being handed out to the numbers inside the parentheses.

Which is NOT a real number?
Which is NOT a real number?
Tap to reveal answer
The mathematics a real number is any integer, irrational, or rational number. The set of real numbers does not include imaginary numbers.
If we look at the possible answers we see that three out of the four are real numbers because they are integers.
7, 6, and 9 are all Real Numbers.
The answer is 
because when a negative number is under a radical sign it creates an imaginary number which is not included in the set of real numbers.
