Answer:

  1. rational
  2. irrational
  3. irrational
  4. irrational
  5. √7, it is irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

A <em>rational</em> number is one that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers. All fractions that have integer numerators and (non-zero) denominators are <em>rational</em> numbers. Any finite decimal number, or any repeating decimal number, is a rational number. These can always be expressed as the ratio of two integers. For example, 0.4040... = 40/99, and 0.286 = 286/1000.

To make an irrational sum, at least one of the contributors must be irrational. You want an irrational 2-number sum that has 7/8 as one of the contributors. Since 7/8 is rational, the other contributor must be irrational.

__

<u>Step 1</u>. The number 7/8 is <em>rational</em>.

<u>Step 2</u>. The desired sum is <em>irrational</em>.

<u>Step 3</u>. The rule <em>rational + </em><em>irrational</em><em> = irrational</em> applies.

<u>Step 4</u>. An <em>irrational</em> number must be chosen.

Step 5. √7 will produce an irrational sum, because <em>it is irrational</em>.

Find the solution of the differential equation that satisfies the given initial condition. dy/dx=x/y , y(0)=-1
Charra [1.4K]

Separating variables, we have

\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac xy \implies y\,dy = x\,dx

Integrate both sides.

\displaystyle \int y\,dy = \int x\,dx

\dfrac12 y^2 = \dfrac12 x^2 + C

Given that y(0)=-1, we find

\dfrac12 (-1)^2 = \dfrac12 0^2 + C \implies C = \dfrac12

Then the particular solution is

\dfrac12 y^2 = \dfrac12 x^2 + \dfrac12

y^2 = x^2 + 1

y = \pm\sqrt{x^2 + 1}

and because y(0)=-1, we take the negative solution to accommodate this initial value.

\boxed{y(x) = -\sqrt{x^2+1}}
