Question

verify the closure property of addition for the following integers-5/9 an
d 8/9

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{-8}{9} \ + \ \frac{5}{9}$

$\frac{-8 \ + \ 5}{9}$

$\frac{-3}{9} \ = \ \frac{-1}{3}$

The Closure property states that when we add two rational numbers, the answer is also a rational number.

$When \ we \ add \ \frac{-8}{9} \ and \ \frac{5}{y} , we \ get \ \frac{-1}{3} , which \ is \ also \ a \ rational \ number.$

Therefore, Closure property is verified.

Hope this helps
