Answer:

Alma is incorrect in her statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

It was given that:

Alma reasoned that adding a rational number with an irrational number would give you a rational number.

she is incorrect as adding an rational number with an irrational number always gives an irrational number.

<u>Example:</u>

4+\sqrt{5} is an irrational number.

Where 4 is an rational number and \sqrt{5} is an irrational number and so adding both of them gives an irrational number.
