Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

An irrational number has never-ending decimals.

A rational number can be written as a fraction or has a terminating decimal.

-7.8 can be rewritten into a fraction. Its decimal also terminates. Therefore, it is not irrational but rational.

deff fn [24]

Whole package weighs 20pounds

1.65 = 5pounds
0.12 = extra pound

3.45 - 1.65 = 1.80 : 0.12 = 15pounds
Adding up 15pounds and the first 5 pounds equal 20 pounds

Is the relationship shown by the data linear? If so, model the data with an equation. X:1,5,9,13 Y:5,10,15,20

ryzh [129]

Let
A (x1,y1)-------> (1,5)
B (x2,y2)------> (5,10)
C (x3,y3)------> (9,15)
D (x4,y4)------> (13,20)

find the slope
AB
m=(10-5)/(5-1)-----> m=5/4

find the slope
CB
m=(15-10)/(9-5)-----> m=5/4

find the slope
DC
m=(20-15)/(13-9)-----> m=5/4

so
<span>the relationship shown is linear
</span>
<span>to model the data with an equation find the equation of a line
</span>with m=5/4 and point A (1,5)
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y-5=(5/4)*(x-1)----> y=1.25x-1.25+5-----> y=1.25x+3.75

the equation to model data is
y=1.25x+3.75

see the attached figure
