Answer to Problem A1.1RP

The integer is positive.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The number given is 2.8.

Concept used:

If a number or an integer is less than 0 or lies to the left side of 0 in the number line, it is considered to be a negative number. It is denoted by a (-) sign.

If a number or an integer is greater than or lying to the right of 0 in the number line, it is positive in nature. It is preceded by a (+) sign. When no sign is mentioned, it is assumed to have a + sign and considered positive.

0 is neutral in nature.

Here, the integer is 2.8. It is not preceded by any sign.

Using the rule aforementioned, it can be deduced that the number has a + sign and can be considered positive.

Therefore, 2.8 is positive.
