Mai's younger brother tells her that 10/7 equal to 2‾√ 2 2‾√ 2 . Mai knows this can't be right, because 10/7 is rational and 2‾√

2 2‾√ 2 is irrational. Write an explanation that Mai could use to convince her brother that 10/7 cannot be the square root of 2.

Answer:

The number 10/7 is a rational number, which means it can be expressed as a fraction. Also, if we divide it would give a decimal infinite periodical number, which means it has a pattern on its decimal numbers.

On the other hand, the square root of 2 is irrational number, that means it can't be expressed as a fraction, because its decimal numbers don't have any pattern at all.

So, Mai's brother can see these type of numbers as crazy (irrational numbers) and sane (rational numbers).

At last, another important characteristic to shows that they aren't equal is that they don't have the exactly decimal numbers.

Write an expression with four terms. Include at least one term with an exponent, one term with a coefficient of 5, one term with
Leokris [45]
An algebraic expression is looking something like this: 8x³ + 5
This expression has two terms; 8x³ and 5
The value of '8' in 8x³ is called COEFFICIENT
The value of '3' in 8x³ is called POWER or INDICES
The term 8x³ is called  an exponent because it has power/indices
The letter 'x' in the term 8x³ is called VARIABLE

So, we want an expression with four terms
_____ ⁺/₋ _____ ⁺/₋ _____ ⁺/₋ _____

One term with an exponent ⇒ You can choose any letter and any power that will go with it, for example, 6x⁴

One term with a coefficient of 5 ⇒ 5x⁴

One term with three factors ⇒ This could be a combination of any three letters that represent three values for example 'abc'. This term means a × b × c, so it has three factors.

One constant ⇒ Choose any number, say 45

Make two of the terms like terms ⇒ We have 6x⁴ + 5x⁴; these two terms are alike, they are in term of x⁴

Putting the four terms together: 6x⁴ + 5x⁴ + abc + 45
