We have,

x+y:x-y=3:2

To prove that, x+ y : x - y = 3:2.

x+y=3

And,

x+y = 2

Adding (1) and (2), we get

x+y+x-y=3+2

⇒2x=5

⇒ x =

Put x = in (1), we get

+y=3

⇒ y=3-=

x+y:x-y=

=3:2

So, x+y:x-y=3:2.

What happens when a rational number is added to an irrational number

Whitepunk [10]

The answer to your question is,

Each time they assume the sum is rational; however, upon rearranging the terms of their equation, they get a contradiction (that an irrational number is equal to a rational number). Since the assumption that the sum of a rational and irrational number is rational leads to a contradiction, the sum must be irrational.

What expression should replace A,B,C

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

A = 5x + 3y

B = 8x + 5y

C = 15x + 11y

Step-by-step explanation:

B = 6x + 2y + 2x + 3y

= 6x + 2x + 2y + 3y

= 8x + 5y

C = 8x + 5y + 7x + 6y

= 8x + 7x + 5y + 6y

= 15x + 11y

A = 7x + 6y - 2x - 3y

= 7x - 2x + 6y - 3y

= 5x + 3y

Simplify using exponents: B12/B5

stiks02 [169]

I think what you mean is:
$\frac{b^{12}}{b^{5}}$

Then using our rules of exponents, this is the same as
$b^{12-5}=b^{7}$
