1. Rational numbers can be written as a ratio (fraction)
Whole numbers are rational. 5 = 5/1, for example.
Square roots are NOT rational. Example: √3
However, square roots of square numbers can be simplified, and are therefore rational. <span>√4 = 2, rational.</span>
√4 + <span>√16 = 2 + 4 = 6. rational
</span>√5 + √36...<span> irrational
</span>√9 + <span>√24... irrational
</span>2 × <span>√4 = 2 × 2 = 4. rational
</span>√49 × <span>√81 = 7 × 9 = 63. rational
</span>3√12... irrational

A, since neither 3 nor 12 is a square but we end up with 6.
<em>g(x)</em> = <em>x</em>² - <em>x</em> - 6
so
<em>g</em> (-4) = (-4)² - (-4) - 6 = 16 + 4 - 6 = 14
When <em>g(x)</em> = 6, we have
6 = <em>x</em>² - <em>x</em> - 6
<em>x</em>² - <em>x</em> - 12 = 0
Solve for <em>x</em>. We factorize this easily as
(<em>x</em> - 4) (<em>x</em> + 3) = 0
which gives
<em>x</em> - 4 = 0 <u>or</u> <em>x</em> + 3 = 0
<em>x</em> = 4 <u>or</u> <em>x</em> = -3
Yes it is a function!, all the first numbers are none repeating, for example it says -5,4,6 since they are not the same this is a function
