8. Select all true statements about the number e. A. e is a rational number. B. e is approximately 2.718. C. e is an irrational number. D. e is between and √2 on the number line. E. e is exactly 2.718.​

Answer 1

The true statements about the number e are:

B. e is approximately 2.718.
C. e is an irrational number.

The statement "D. e is between and √2 on the number line" is false because e is actually greater than √2.

The statement "A. e is a rational number" is false because e cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers.

The statement "E. e is exactly 2.718" is also false because e is an irrational number that cannot be expressed exactly as a decimal or fraction.
