Because if you multiply 2 different irrational numbers (like the following)

You will get an irrational answer.
BUT
if you multiply the same square root (which are both irrational, you get a rational number)
Answer:
a) x=93
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
possibly z2-6 so try the third one
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = # of tickets sold in advance
Let y = # of tickets sold the day of
Cost of the tickets & total sales: 6x & 10y = 6828
You also know y = x + 206
Take the equation mentioned above y = x + 206 and sub it in anywhere the variable y is in the other equations so you'll have this:
6x + 10(x+206) = 6828
Now solve for x to get x = 298
To finish the problem, you must now find the number of y tickets sold.
Sub your x value that you found back into the equation y = x + 206 and you'll get y = 504.
So, 298 tickets were sold in advance and 504 tickets were sold the day of
