3. A student represents an integer 8 as 8/1. Which of the following is true about the integer?
a. It is a rational number as it is in the form p/q, where q≠0.
b. It is an irrational number as it is in the form p/q, where q≠0.
c. It is not a rational number as rational number is in the form p/q, where q≠1.
d. It is not an irrational number as irrational number is in the form p/q, where q≠1.
4. Is -10 a rational number? Why or why not?
