A negative real number is any real number that is less than zero.

A positive real number is any real number that is greater than zero.

Zero is neither positive nor negative.

Part (a)

If b is positive then it is greater than zero:

• b > 0

Part (b)

Nonpositive means not positive, so either negative or equal to zero.

If s is nonpositive then it is less than or equal to zero:

• s ≤ 0

Part (c)

w is greater than or equal to -6:

• w ≥ -6
