8th Standard Maths Exercise 1.2 Question 3.
Verify the closure property for addition and multiplication of the rational numbers \(\frac{-5}{7}\) and \(\frac{8}{9}\)
Solution:
Closure property for addition.
Let a = \(\frac{-5}{7}\) and b = \(\frac{8}{9}\) be the given rational numbers.
? Closure property is true for addition of rational numbers.
Closure property for multiplication
? Closure property is true for multiplication of rational numbers.
8th Std Maths Exercise 1.2 Question 4.
Verify the associative property for addition and multiplication of the rational numbers \(\frac{-10}{11}, \frac{5}{6}, \frac{-4}{3}\).
Solution:
a × (b × c) = \(\frac{100}{99}\)
From (1) and (2) a × (b × c) = (a × b) × c is true for rational numbers.
Thus associative property is true for addition and multiplication of rational numbers.
Samacheer Guru 8th Maths Question 5.
Check the commutative property for addition and multiplication of the rational numbers \(\frac{-10}{11}\) and \(\frac{-8}{33}\).
Solution:
Let a = \(\frac{-10}{11}\) and b = \(\frac{-8}{33}\) be the given rational numbers.
From (1) and (2)
a + b = b + a and hence addition is commutative for rational numbers.
From (3) and (4) a × b = b × a
Hence multiplication is commutative for rational numbers.
Samacheerkalvi.Guru 8th Maths Question 6.
Verify the distributive property a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c) for the rational numbers a = \(\frac{-1}{2}\) ,b = \(\frac{2}{3}\) and c = \(\frac{-5}{6}\).
Solution:
Given the rational number a = \(\frac{-1}{2}\) ,b = \(\frac{2}{3}\) and c = \(\frac{-5}{6}\).
From (1) and (2) we have a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c) is true.
Hence multiplication is distributive over addition for rational numbers Q.
