Answer:

"The sum of two rational numbers is rational."

By definition, a rational number can be expressed as a fraction with integer values in the numerator and denominator (denominator not zero). So, adding two rationals is the same as adding two such fractions, which will result in another fraction of this same form since integers are closed under addition and multiplication. Thus, adding two rational numbers produces another rational number.

What is the area of the shaded region? DO NOT include the unit of measure in your answer

Aleks04 [339]

The area is 73. You have to find the area of both triangles using the formula a = 1/2bh. The shaded triangle is 108 square yards but because another triangle is cut out of it, we need to subtract the area of the white triangle from the shaded triangle. The area of the white triangle is 35. So now we have 108-35 =73. That’s how i got 73.
