Resolved: Some false answers on the Quiz
for 1st question isn't the compiment of winning : drawing and losing ?
and for the 3rd , knowing 0 is both positive and negative atthe same time shouldn't negative and non negative numbers be the correct option ? i thought compliments are kinda disjoined
Aymen, I think you are right. These questions answers are not correct. Waiting for instructors' input.
Hello Aymen and André,
It is interesting to ponder a bit the questions currently in the quiz.
--------------------------------
Firstly, the complement of winning is indeed, as you have rightfully put it, everything that is not winning. When going over the questions
offered, I suggest reading them carefully. Nevertheless, your logic is correct, so concentrate on what the task requires us to point out.
--------------------------------
Secondly, I feel a small clarification concerning the whole numbers would help best.
We have three types of whole numbers:
- negative, those strictly less than zero (x < 0)
- zero itself, and
- positive, those strictly bigger than zero (x > 0)
Now, when doing complements, you need to account for having 3 different types instead of 2.
Mind still, zero is neither positive nor negative. What does this imply for zero being non-positive / non-negative?
-------------------------------
Finally, a new redoing of the quiz is advisable - currently there should be no problems with the answers.
