Answer:

The product of two rational numbers is a rational number

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll quickly recap the proof: a rational number is, by definition, the ratio between two integers. So, there exists four integers m,n,p,q such that

a=\dfrac{m}{n},\quad b=\dfrac{p}{q}

If we multiply the fractions, we have

ab = \dfrac{mp}{nq}

Now, mp and nq are multiplication of integers, and thus they are integers themselves. So, ab is also a ratio between integer, and thus rational.

Can someone help me how to solve this?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

x > -5  in the answer


Step-by-step explanation:

(5 - 3x) / 4 < 5

multiplying both sides by 4:-

5 - 3x < 20

-3x < 15

x > 15/-3

x > -5  (Note the inequality sign is flipped because we are dividing by a negative number)

7.5d = 2.5d Lin divided each side by 2.5d and Elena subtracted 2.5d from each side with both leads to the solution
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Elena's move will lead to the solution of the problem

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation 7.5d=2.5d, Lin divides each side by 2.5d, and Elena subtracts 2.5d from each side. Will both moves lead to the solution? Explain your reasoning

Given:

7.5d = 2.5d

Lin divides each side by 2.5d, Lin:

7.5d / 2.5d = 2.5d / 2.5d

3 = 1

This can not be the solution to the problem because 3 can not be Equal to 1

Elena subtracts 2.5d from each side

7.5d = 2.5d

7.5d - 2.5d = 2.5d - 2.5d

5d = 0

This can lead to the solution of the problem

Elena's move will lead to the solution of the problem

A triangle has sides of lengths 10 24 and 26 is it a right triangle explain?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Yes.  For right triangles, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides is equal to the square of the longer side.  Thus, this is a right triangle if 10^2+24^2=26^2.  Expanding these squares, we have 100+576=676, which is true.  Thus, the triangle is right.
