1 answer:

6 0

The answer to your question is,

Each time they assume the sum is rational; however, upon rearranging the terms of their equation, they get a contradiction (that an irrational number is equal to a rational number). Since the assumption that the sum of a rational and irrational number is rational leads to a contradiction, the sum must be irrational.

X/5=2/3=5/y 2/3 4/9 1

Mademuasel [1]

$\frac{x}{5}= \frac{2}{3} = \frac{5}{y}$
Break the equation into parts;
$\frac{x}{5} = \frac{2}{3} ; \frac{2}{3}= \frac{5}{y}$
Solving for x;
$\frac{x}{5} = \frac{2}{3}$
x= $\frac{10}{3}$
Solving for y;
$\frac{2}{3} = \frac{5}{y} 
y= \frac{3*5}{2} 
y= \frac{15}{2}$
$\frac{x}{y} = \frac{10/3}{15/2}$
$\frac{x}{y} = \frac{4}{15}$

X cannot equal +2, and can't be -1. If you factor it, then you notice you get 2(x+2)(x-2). If you use either one for the x, one will be zero and the won't, and vise-versa.
