Determine which binomial expansion it came from
The first step is to add the powers of he expression in brackets;
Each term of a binomial expansion are always of the form:
Where n = the sum above
Compare to the above general form of binomial expansion
Substitute 6 for n
[Next is to solve for a and b]
<em>From the above expression, the power of (5) is 2</em>
<em>Express 2 as 6 - 4</em>
By direct comparison of
and
We have;
Further comparison gives
[Solving for a]
By direct comparison of
[Solving for b]
By direct comparison of
Substitute values for a, b, n and r in
Solve for

Answer: Option A, the square root of 40, is an irrational number.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given 4 options:
- the sqrt of 40
- the sqrt of 49
- the sqrt of 100
- the sqrt of 9
All but one are perfect squares. Let's find out which one is not a perfect square.
The sqrt of 49 is 7. 7 times 7 is equal to 49.
The sqrt of 100 is 10. 10 times itself is equal to 100.
The sqrt of 9 is 3. 3 times 3 is equal to 9.
What about the square root of 40?
We know it's not a perfect square, and it's somewhere between 6 and 7. So, the hint from the question tells us that imperfect squares are irrational. Then this must be the answer!
We need to work out first the scale factor of the side length
Side MN correspond to the side JK
Side MN = 3.5 cm
Side JK = 14 cm
Scale factor = 14/3.5 = 4
Side OM correspond to side LJ
Side OM = 12 cm
Side LJ = 12 × 4 = 48 cm
