Well, I don't know if there should be a picture of the problem that should go with the question. But a trick for solving distributive property is to use the trick PEMDAS In order.

For Example:

P-Paraenthese

E-Exponent

M-Multiply

D-Divide

A-Add

S-Subtract

NOTE!

Remember to always Multiply and divide BEFORE adding and subtracting.

Hoped this helped!

Prove that if one solution for a quadratic equation of the form x 2 + bx + c = 0 is rational (where b and c are rational), then

erica [24]

$x^2+bx+c = (x-r)(x-s)\\
x^2+bx+c = x^2-(r+s)x+rs\\\\
b = -(r+s)\\ c = rs$

Say r is rational. Suppose for a second, that s is not. Then, r+s is irrational. But this contradicts the fact that b is rational.

So, if one root is rational, then the other root is also rational
