By creating a common denominator, you can compare different numbers to the same ratio. For example:
Take 2/3 and 3/4
Now 3/4 is the same as 9/12
And 2/3 is the same as 8/12
Now that they have the same denominator, you can tell that 9/12 is clearly greater than 8/12, meaning 3/4 is greater than 2/3.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear function is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the form:
f (x) = m*x + b or y=m*x + b
where y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable, m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the Y axis.
The slope m measures the inclination of the line with respect to the abscissa axis, that is, the x axis. According to the value of the slope m, the linear function can be increasing if m> 0, decreasing if m <0 or constant if m = 0.
You know that the number of sea turtle deaths per year is modeled by f(x) = 13.42x + 109.118. Then the value of the slope is 13.42. In this scenario, the slope indicates that the number of deaths of sea turtles grows in a proportion of 13.42 with respect to the pollution index of the bay.

sorry can we have more info?
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to your question is,
Each time they assume the sum is rational; however, upon rearranging the terms of their equation, they get a contradiction (that an irrational number is equal to a rational number). Since the assumption that the sum of a rational and irrational number is rational leads to a contradiction, the sum must be irrational.
