The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the statements are true, we will analyze each statement one by one. **Step 1: Analyze Statement (i)** Statement: \(-\frac{3}{5}\) lies to the left of 0 on the number line. - Since \(-\frac{3}{5}\) is a negative number, it will indeed lie to the left of 0. **Conclusion:** This statement is **True**. **Step 2: Analyze Statement (ii)** Statement: \(-\frac{12}{7}\) lies to the right of 0 on the number line. - \(-\frac{12}{7}\) is also a negative number, so it will lie to the left of 0. **Conclusion:** This statement is **False**. **Step 3: Analyze Statement (iii)** Statement: \(\frac{1}{3}\) and \(-\frac{5}{2}\) lie on opposite sides of 0 on the number line. - \(\frac{1}{3}\) is positive and will be to the right of 0, while \(-\frac{5}{2}\) is negative and will be to the left of 0. **Conclusion:** This statement is **True**. **Step 4: Analyze Statement (iv)** Statement: \(-\frac{18}{-13}\) lies to the left of 0 on the number line. - \(-\frac{18}{-13}\) simplifies to \(\frac{18}{13}\), which is positive and will lie to the right of 0. **Conclusion:** This statement is **False**. **Step 5: Analyze Statement (v)** Statement: \(-\frac{5}{-8}\) lies on the right of \(-\frac{5}{7}\) on the number line. - \(-\frac{5}{-8}\) simplifies to \(\frac{5}{8}\), which is positive and lies to the right of 0. - \(-\frac{5}{7}\) is negative and lies to the left of 0. Since \(\frac{5}{8}\) is positive, it will indeed lie to the right of \(-\frac{5}{7}\). **Conclusion:** This statement is **True**. **Final Results:** 1. True 2. False 3. True 4. False 5. True
