A set has closure under an operation if performance of that operation on members of the set always produces a member of the same set; in this case we also say that the set is closed under the operation.
A closure property is a certain rule that holds <u>if it is true for all elements of a set under the given operation</u> and a closure property does not hold <u>if there is at least one pair of elements that do not follow the closure property under the given operation.</u>
Therefore, Emma is correct, because you can find a counterexample (7:2=3.5) that gives you a non-integer answer.
Answer: correct option is B
Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution: For finding QR we need to apply Pythagoras Theorem
What is Pythagoras Theorem ?
ans : Pythagoras Theorem is the sum of square of two sides which is equal to the third side or the hypotenuse. This formula is valid oy incase of Right-Angled Traingle because one of three angles here is 90°
According to this law let's apply it in the diagram shown here.
- (Hypotenuse)² = (Adjacent)² + (Opposite)²
- (5x - 2)² = (QR)² + (3x - 1)²
- (QR)² = (5x - 2)² - (3x - 1)²
After factorising both of them we get
- (QR)² = 25x² - 20x + 4 - (9x² - 6x + 1)
- (QR)² = 25x² - 20x + 4 - 9x² + 6x - 1
So, QR is √(16x² - 14x + 3)
