Answer:

There could be many answers to this problem, one being the √(24 x 5 - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Irrational numbers are classified as real numbers that are non-terminating and non-repeating decimals.  This means that the number will be a decimal that never ends and does not contain a pattern of any kind.  For example, a decimal that never ends is usually written as: 5.6789234...  This type of number is irrational because the decimal keeps going and shows no pattern of repetition. In the answer given, the value of (24 x 5 -8) is 112.  The square root of 112 is not a perfect square and thus you will get a non-terminating and non-repeated decimal as the final answer, thus making it irrational.
