Answer:

Option 2 - Irrational              

Step-by-step explanation:

To find :  The sum or product of a non-zero rational number and an irrational number is always  

Solution :

By the statement,

→ "The sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational."

Example : Let a rational number 3 and irrational number \sqrt{5}

Sum of rational and irrational number

3+\sqrt{5}= 3+2.236067977.....=5.236067977....

5.236067977.... is a irrational number as if you add a non-repeating and non-terminating decimal to a repeating decimal, you will have a repeating decimal.

→ "The product of a non-zero rational number and an irrational number is irrational."

Example : Let a rational number 3 and irrational number \sqrt{5}

Sum of rational and irrational number

3\times\sqrt{5}= 3\times2.236067977.....=6.708203931.....

6.708203931...... is a irrational number as If you multiply any irrational number by the rational number it gives you irrational except zero which is rational.

Therefore, Option 2 is correct.

The sum or product of a non-zero rational number and an irrational number is always  irrational.

The principal P is borrowed and the loan's future value A at time t is given. Determine the loan's simple interest rate r.
Virty [35]

A = P + SI

A-P = SI

5425-5000 = 425

THEREFORE THE SIMPLE INTRESTE IS $425

SI = PTR/100

425 = 5000×1×R/100

425×100/5000×1=R

425×100÷5,000×1 = 8.5%

THEREFORE THE RATE IS 8.5%

Show work please.<br><br> solve system of equations using matrices.
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

(t, t -1, t)

Step-by-step explanation:

You have three unknowns but only 2 equations, so you can't really SOLVE this...you can get a solution with a variable still in it (I forget what this is called.  I think it refers to infinite many solutions).  Here's how it works:

Set up your matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2&1\\2&-1&-1\\\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\1\\\end{array}\right]

You want to change the number in position 21 (the 2 in the scond row) to a 0 so you have y and z left.  Do this by multiplying the top row by -2 then adding it to the second row to get that 2 to become a 0.  Multiplying in a -2 to the top row gives you:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&4&-2\\2&-1&-1\\\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-4\\1\\\end{array}\right]

Then add, keeping the first row the same and changing the second to reflect the addition:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&4&-2\\0&3&-3\\\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-4\\-3\\\end{array}\right]

The second equation is this now:

3y - 3z = -3.  Solving for y gives you y = z - 1.  Let's let z = t (some random real number that will make the system true.  Any number will work.  I'll show you at the end.  Just bear with me...)

lf z = t, and if y = z - 1, then y = t - 1.  So far we have that y = t - 1 and z = t.  Now we solve for x:

From the first equation in the original system,

x - 2y + z = 2.  Subbing in t - 1 for y and t for z:

x - 2(t - 1) + t = 2.  Simplify to get

x - 2t + 2 + t = 2  and  x - t = 0, and x = t.  So the solution set is (t, t - 1, t).  Picking a random value for t of, let's say 2, sub that in and make sure it works.  If:

x - 2y + z = 2, then t - 2(t - 1) + t = 2 becomes t - 2t + 2 + t = 2, and with t = 2, 2 - 2(2) + 2 + 2 = 2.    Check it:  2 - 4 + 4 = 2 and 2 = 2.  You could pick any value for t and it will work.

Look at the picture below for the question i need help with. I pretty sure you need to find the y-intercept...
daser333 [38]

Answer:

20.00

Explanation:

You can see that with every two coffees the amount is decreasing by 3.50 each time

The slope is -1.75 which is for every one coffee so this multiplied by 2 = 3.50
