Craig uses a ruler to determine the length of two pieces of metal. He records the length of each piece of metal as a rational nu

mber. Which statement best explains whether the sum of the two lengths Craig recorded must also be a rational number?
A. When adding two rational numbers a/b and c/d, the numerators a and c do not have to be integers. Therefore, the sum does not have to be a rational number.

B.When adding two rational numbers a/b and c/d, the common denominator bd does not have to be an interger. Therefore, the sum does not have to be a rational number.

C. When adding two rational numbers a/b and c/d, the sum is ac/bd, and both the numerator and denominator are integers. Therefore, the sum must be a rational number.

D. When adding two rational numbers a/b and c/d, the sum is ad+bc/bd, and both the numerator and denominator are integers. Therefore, the sum must be a rational number.

A number r is more than 0 or less than or equal to ‐8
Butoxors [25]

Answer

-8 \geq r > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

you know that r is less than or equal to -8, so you write that, and then you know that r is also greater than 0, so then you add that to it, and then you have the answer. r will be in the middle because it is the range of what are can be.

Mileage tests are conducted for a particular model of automobile. If a 98% confidence interval with a margin of error of 1 mile
Llana [10]

Answer: 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Significance level : \alpha:1-0.98=0.02

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.01}=2.33

margin of error : E= 1 mile per gallon

Population standard deviation: \sigma=2.6 miles per gallon.

We know that when the population standard deviation is known then the formula to find the sample size is given by  :

n=(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{E})^2

n=(\dfrac{(2.33)\times 2.6}{1})^2=36.699364\approx37  [Round to the next whole number.]

Hence, the required number of automobiles should be used in the test = 37
