Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Proof: Product of two rational numbers
Using direct proofs.
Let the two rational numbers be A and B.
Such that:


The product:




Proved, because 1/3 is rational
(b) Proof: Quotient of a rational number and a non-zero rational number
Using direct proofs.
Let the two rational numbers be A and B.
Such that:


The quotient:

Express as product



Proved, because 3/4 is rational
(c) x + y is rational (missing from the question)
Using direct proofs.
Let x and y be
Such that:


The sum:

Take LCM


Proved, because 7/6 is rational
<em>The above proof works for all values of A, B, x and y; as long as they are rational values</em>
Product means the result you get after multiplying. So you have to multiply the two numbers. 379*8 = 3032
<span>You need to look at the scale of different values and find one which is in the 40th percentile. This means 40 percent are higher and 60 percent are lower than the value you select. This can be done by figuring out the middle and going up a bit.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:
1. Make sure that the trinomial is written in the correct order - the trinomial must be written in descending order from highest power to lowest power. In you case, the trinomial must be written as

2. Decide if the three terms have anything in common, called the greatest common factor or GCF. If so, factor out the GCF. Do not forget to include the GCF as part of your final answer.
In your case, coefficients 2, 5 and 3 do not have common factors, so go to the next step.
3. Multiply the leading coefficient and the constant, that is multiply the first and last numbers together:

4. List all of the factors from step 3 and decide which combination of numbers will combine to get the number next to x:

5. After choosing the correct pair of numbers, you must give each number a sign so that when they are combined they will equal the number next to x and also multiply to equal the number found in Step 3:

6. Rewrite the original problem with four terms by splitting the middle term into the two numbers chosen in step 5:

7. Now that the problem is written with four terms, you can factor by grouping:
