Answer:

The similarities between rational and irrational numbers are defined below,

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational Numbers: The numbers which can be expressed in the form of $\frac{p}{q}$ , where p and q are integers and q is not equal to 0.

Irrational Numbers: The number which can't be expressed in the form of $\frac{p}{q}$ are called irrational numbers.

The similarities between rational and irrational numbers are:

1. Both rational and irrational numbers are belong to real numbers.

2. There exist rational numbers between any two rational numbers similarly there exist irrational numbers between any two irrational numbers.

3. The sum of two rational numbers is a rational number and the sum of two irrational numbers is an irrational number.

4. The difference of two rational numbers is a rational number and the difference of two irrational numbers is an irrational number.

Rational number are numbers which can be expressed in a ratio of two integers. Both numerator and denominator are whole numbers, where the denominator is not equal to zero.
An irrational number on the other hand is a number which cannot be expressed in a ratio of two integers. However there are similarities between them. For example: the product of both irrational numbers of born rational numbers can be rational number, both irrational and rational numbers can be negative and positive, and both can be expressed as a fraction.

Find the value of y so that line is passing through two points

Alenkinab [10]

Slope of a line passing through two given points
= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

For m=3, and substituting coordinates,
3=(1-y)/(4-1)
solve for y
1-y=3*3=9
y=1-9=-8

Answer: y=-8

Elementary Algebra Skill

mr_godi [17]

The answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction

To find the numerator, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator to it.

The denominator remains the same.

So, 2 $\frac{2}{3}$ will be $\frac{8}{3}$

2. Now the equation is,

$\frac{3}{2}$ a - $\frac{4}{3}$ a = $\frac{10}{3}$ + $\frac{8}{3}$ a

3. Take LCM on both sides.

For the left side, multiply the first fraction by $\frac{3}{3}$ and multiply the second fraction by $\frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{3*3}{2*3}$ a - $\frac{4*3}{3*3}$ a = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

4. Solve by making a the subject

$\frac{9a-8a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{3a}{6}$ =10+8a

$\frac{a}{2}$ = 10 + 8a

a = 2(10 + 8a)

a = 20 + 16a

a-16a = 20

-15a = 20

a = $\frac{20}{-15}$

a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Therefore, the answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Help algebra word problems a quire of paper consists of 25 sheets, and a ream of paper consists of 500 sheets. how many quires a

Natali5045456 [20]

Good morning from Canada!

What we know:
-quire=25 sheets
-ream=100 sheets

So, we are looking for how many quires can fit into a ream. All we have to do is divide the number of sheets in a ream (100) by the number of sheets in a quire (25) because dividing allows us to see how many times a specific number can go into another number, which is what we are looking for. (How many quires are in a ream).

100/25=4

Therefore 4 quires can fit into a ream.

Hope this helps!
