Which of the statements using operations on rational or irrational numbers always results in a rational number?

<h3>Hm a irrational number is a number like this:</h3>

1.999999\inf

So adding a rational number, like 2, it would be irrational still:

2+1.999999\inf=3.999999\inf

That being said, answer C is wrong

Now, what is 2/2? Or 4/1? Whole numbers are one of the 3 types of rational numbers.

2\ /\ 2=1\\\\4\ / 1=\ 4

Thus the answer appears to be D

Now lets use the process of elimination to double check the answer:

The wording of your question is what will help us out here:

Which of the statements using operations on rational or irrational numbers <u>always results </u>in a <u>rational number?</u>

Because of that, any of the choices that involve a irrational number can result with another irrational number like so:

a)\ 1.999\inf+ 1.999\inf=3.888\inf\\\\b)\ 2.999\inf / 1.999\inf= 1.50025\inf

And there you go, the only answer that hasn't been proven wrong is answer D.

Write a polynomial function in standard form given the zeros.<br><br> -1/2, -5 + i
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

y = x³ + 10.5x² + 31x + 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex roots (roots that have imaginary terms) always come in conjugate pairs.  So if one root is -5 + i, there's another root that's -5 − i.

So the polynomial is:

y = (x + 1/2) (x − (-5 + i)) (x − (-5 − i))

Distributing:

y = (x + 1/2) (x² − (-5 + i)x − (-5 − i)x + (-5 + i)(-5 − i))

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 5x − ix + 5x + ix + (-5 + i)(-5 − i))

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 10x + (-5 + i)(-5 − i))

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 10x + 25 + 5i − 5i − i²)

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 10x + 25 + 1)

y = (x + 1/2) (x² + 10x + 26)

y = x(x² + 10x + 26) + 1/2(x² + 10x + 26)

y = x³ + 10x² + 26x + 1/2x² + 5x + 13

y = x³ + 10.5x² + 31x + 13

Simplify -6<br> .<br> 2<br> 041<br> 318<br> 4<br> 8<br> 318
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

- 6 \frac{1}{4}  - ( - 2 \frac{1}{8} )

=  - 6 \frac{1}{4}  + 2 \frac{1}{8}

=   \frac{ - 25}{4}  +  \frac{17}{8}

=   \frac{  - 50}{8}  +  \frac{17}{8}

= \frac{ - 50 + 17}{8}

=  \frac{ - 33}{8}

=  - 4 \frac{1}{8}

Find a value for x that will make each of the following equations true. 2. x+8=21 b. 8-32=55 c. 3x=54 d. x/5=10 all I need help
Nady [450]

Answer:

C. x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

3x = 54

First, you try to get x by itself.

To do that, you divide both sides by 3

It looks like this:

3x/3 = 54/3

And it ends up being:

x = 18
