Answer:
"The product of a rational number and an irrational number is SOMETIMES irrational." If you multiply any irrational number by the rational number zero, the result will be zero, which is rational. Any other situation, however, of a rational times an irrational will be irrational
A better statement would be:
"The product of a non-zero rational number and an irrational number is irrational
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
The relative error is the absolute error divided by the absolute value of p. for an approximation p*, the relative error is
r = |p*-p|/|p|
we want r to be at most 10⁻³, thus
|p*-p|/|p| ≤ 10⁻³
|p*-p| ≤ |p|* 10⁻³
therefore, p*-p should lie in the interval [ - |p| * 10⁻³ , |p| * 10⁻³ ], and as a consecuence, p* should be in the interval [p - |p| * 10⁻³ , p + |p| * 10⁻³ ]
