Difference is 4 quotient is 2

difference means subtraction
differenc eis 4
that means that they are 4 away from each other

quotient is 2
that means that the bigger number divided by the smaller number is 2

represent them
x and y
x is 4 more than y
the numbers are now represented as
4+y and y

when you divide the bigger number by the smaller number tghen you get 2
(4+y)/y=2
multiply both sides by y
4+y=2y
subtract y
4=y
one number is y
x=y+4
x=4+4
x=8

numbers are 4 and 8

Which number is IRRATIONAL?

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

C)√ 72

Step-by-step explanation:

We will Simplify the radical by breaking the radicand up into a product of known factors.

When we do this, we figure out that...

A.√ 49 = 7

B.√ 64 = 8

D.√ 121 = 11

BUT C) is different.

√ 72 can not be divided into any whole number an exact amount of times.

So instead, this can be solved by writing it as shown:

Exact Form:

6 √ 2

Decimal Form:

8.48528137

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll provide an example to help you. Let's say we were solving $x^2+5x-7=0$ and we wanted to factor the quadratic on the left side. We can't do that because the factors of -7 don't add up to 5. So we'd have to use the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula is essentially the last resort that will solve all quadratic equations, so it could be seen as a preferred method. But, unless you can factor the quadratic, it's much easier to solve.

Now let's do another one. $x^2+5x+6=0$ for example can be written as $(x+2)(x+3)=0$ and we can easily get $x=-2$ and $x=-3$ as solutions since plugging them into the factors would produce 0 (from the Zero Product Property). If we used the quadratic formula, it would take more time to plug in the variables and solve when we can just simply factor.
