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>.

Solve the equation given in Exercise 15 with and without using the LCD of the fractions. Are your answers the same?
Colt1911 [192]
Without LCD :
1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24)
2x + 3 = 3x - 8
2x - 3x = -8 - 3
-x = - 11
x = 11

with LCD :
1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24) ...multiply by 6
3(4x + 6) = 2(9x - 24)
12x + 18 = 18x - 48
12x - 18x = -48 - 18
-6x = - 66
x = -66/-6
x = 11

Yes, the answers are the same :)

The areas of two similar triangles are 72dm2 and 50dm2. The sum of their perimeters is 226dm. What is the perimeter of each of t
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

103=  p small

plarge = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the the ratio of the areas is the scale factor squared/

Larger triangle over smaller triangle

72

----- = scale factor ^2

50

simplify by dividing by 2 on top and bottom

36

----- = scale factor ^2

25

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(36)

-------------- = sqrt(scale factor ^2)

sqrt(25)

6

-------------- = scale factor

5

The ratio of the perimeters is the scale factor

p large             6

-------------- = ----------------

 p small                5

Using cross products

6 p large = 5 p small

We know the sum is 226

p large + p small = 226

p large = 226 - p small

We have 2 equation and 2 unknowns

6 p large = 5 p small

Substitute for p large

6 (226 - p small) = 5 p small

1356 - 6 p small = 5 p small

Add 6 p small to each side

1356 = 11 p small

divide by 11

1356/11 =  p small

P large = 226-1356/11

p large = 2486/11-1356/11

plarge = 1130/11

The solution requires whole number answers so

1356/11 =  p small

123.27 which rounds to 123

plarge = 1130/11

plarge = 102.7272 = 103
