The next step of your proof is to subtract (a/b) from both sides.
Then you get, x = (m/n) - (a/b)
Since rationals are closed over addition, (m/n) + (-a/b) is a rational number.
Therefore, x (an irrational number) = a rational number <em>This is a false statement which is a contradiction. So, the assumption was incorrect.</em>
Thus, the sum of a rational and irrational number is an irrational number. QED
Answer:
The larger angle is 144 degrees and the smaller angle is 36 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Because this is a supplementary angle you have to find out what x is to solve this equation 
Because 2.4x and 9.6x are like terms we add them 
So now to find x we divide 180 by 12 to get 15
We replace the x with 15 
We add 36 and 144 which equals 180

The answer would be no mode because it doesn't have any repeating numbers.
Answer:
19% of households have more cars than the garage can hold
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following distribution for the number of cars owned by a family.
Number of cars X: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Probability: 0.07 0.31 0.43 0.12 0.04 0.02 0.01
We have to find the percentage of households have more cars than the garage can hold.
A garage can hold two cars. Thus, the household with more than two cars are the households that have more cars than the garage can hold.
The given distribution is a discrete probability distribution.
Thus, we evaluate:

Thus, 19% of households have more cars than the garage can hold.
