Answer:

5 + (-3/2√2) = irrational number

5 - (-3/2√2) = irrational number since we have  √2

Step by step explanation

Here the given two numbers are 5 and -3/√8.

Here we can rewrite √8 = √2√4

Which is 2√2.

So √8 = 2√2, where √2 is an irrational number.

-3/√8 = -3 / 2√2 = =3/ 2√2 is an irrational number.

When you add, subtract, multiply and divide a whole number (5) with an irrational number (-3/2√2) is always an irrational number.

Therefore, when you do the operations with 5 and -2/2√2 always result in irrational number.

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.

Samuel can do 120 jumping jacks in two minutes.
ki77a [65]

Answers:

What is the ratio?         120:2

What is the unit rate?   60:1

What is the rate?          60 jumping jacks per minute

===================================================

Further Explanation:

To find the ratio of jumping jacks to minutes, you just write the two values 120 and 2 separated by a colon. That's how we get 120:2 as our first answer.

--------

Once we have 120:2, we divide both parts by 2 to get 60:1

120/2 = 60

2/2 = 1

The reason why we do this is so that the "2 minutes" turns into "1 minute". A unit ratio has the time value in unit increments so we can see how many jumping jacks Samuel can do. Writing "60:1" means "60 jumping jacks in 1 minute"

-------

Saying "60 jumping jacks in 1 minute" is the same as saying "60 jumping jacks per minute", which is similar to a car's speed of something like 60 miles per hour. The unit "X per Y" is the template for speed, where X is the number of items you get done and Y is the unit of time. In this case, X = 60 jumping jacks and Y = 1 minute.
