The square root of a whole number will be rational if the whole number is a perfect square (i.e 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144 etc) and irrational otherwise.
Rational number is a number that can be described as m/n
so a fraction can be a rational number, 0.8=4/5
Irrational numbers can't be written as a fraction
The part about the number having to be a perfect square is still correct, if it's not a prefect square than it will just keep going(a decimal that never ends)
for example the square root of 0.64 is 0.8
and the square root of 10 is 3.162277...
as you can see the 0.64 one ends and is rational, whereas the 10 one just keeps going and is irrational.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Mikes repair shop $100 service charge plus $65 per hour Amys auto repair $40 service charge plus $80 per hour write an equation for each repair shop to represent the total cost of a car repair as a function of the number of hours worked let C = total cost to you let h = number of hours worked. Suppose you need to get the dent in your car repaired you see the ads above in the newspaper your father who knows a bit about cars said it would take no more than 3 hours for the repair person to fix your car how do you determine where you should take your car to get it repaired
-Mike Cost:: M(3) = 100 +65*3 = $295
-Amy Cost:: A(3) = 40 + 80*3 = $280
------------------------------------------------------------
-Mike charges 100 dollars service charge plus 65 dollars per hour.
-Amy charges 40 dollars service charge plus 80 dollars per hour.
-The cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * x.
-The cost to repair from amy is 40 + 80 * x.
------------------------------------------------------------
Let x = 3 and you get:
The cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * 3 = 295 dollars.
The cost to repaid from amy is 40 + 80 * 3 = 280 dollars.
As long as the time to repair is 3 hours or less, the cost to repair will be cheaper from Amy.
