Question
A rational number is negative if one of p and q is positive and the other is
- Negative
- Positive
- Both
- Zero
Hint:
A rational number is negative when the numerator is negative and the denominator is positive or vice versa.
The correct answer is: Negative
Given that is negative with p or q being negative. For this to happen the other value must be positive. This is because if both the numerator and the denominator was negative, it would cancel out and leave the rational number as positive. Thus, the other value has to be positive for the rational number to be negative with p or q being negative.
Hence, the correct answer is option a.
