Answer :
Let's assume the opposite of the statement i.e., 3 + √5 is a rational number.


Since, a, b and 3 are integers. So,

Here, it contradicts that √5 is an irrational number.
because of the wrong assumption that 3 + √5 is a rational number.

Hence, 3 + √5 is an irrational number.
The answer is:
212/100
=(200/100)+(12/100)
=2.00+0.12
=2.12
Answer:
k = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for k:
-7 k - 44 = k + 12
Subtract k from both sides:
(-7 k - k) - 44 = (k - k) + 12
-7 k - k = -8 k:
-8 k - 44 = (k - k) + 12
k - k = 0:
-8 k - 44 = 12
Add 44 to both sides:
(44 - 44) - 8 k = 44 + 12
44 - 44 = 0:
-8 k = 12 + 44
12 + 44 = 56:
-8 k = 56
Divide both sides of -8 k = 56 by -8:
(-8 k)/(-8) = 56/(-8)
(-8)/(-8) = 1:
k = 56/(-8)
The gcd of 56 and -8 is 8, so 56/(-8) = (8×7)/(8 (-1)) = 8/8×7/(-1) = 7/(-1):
k = 7/(-1)
Multiply numerator and denominator of 7/(-1) by -1:
Answer: k = -7
2) Larger triangle is twice as large as the smaller one so x is 16
3) 16/12.8= 1.25 (This is the scale factor)
for y: 10/1.25=8
for x: 30/1.25=16
4) 8/6.4=1.25 (Scale factor)
for y: 14/1.25=11.2
for x: 15/1.25= 12
5) 22.5/9= 2.5 (scale factor)
for x: 12x2.5=30
for y: 35/2.5= 14
6) No because the scale factor is 2 but 14/8 does not equal to 2
