Is the difference between two rational numbers always as rational number?

Mathematics
1 answer:
sineoko [7]4 years ago
4 0

Yes, the difference of rationals is always a rational.

Consider a/b - c/d, where a, b, c, d are integers with bd≠0.

The difference can be written as

... a/b - c/d = (ad - bc)/(bd)

where each product of integers is also an integer, hence this expression is rational.

Is the triangle with side lengths of 18cm, 24cm and 30 cm a right triangle ?
kumpel [21]

If a, b and c are the lengths of a right triangle and c is the longest side, then:

a^2+b^2=c^2

We have a = 18cm, b = 24cm and c = 30cm. Substitute and check:

L_s=18^2+24^2=324+576=900\\\\R_s=30^2=900\\\\L_s=R_s

<h3>Answer: It's the right triangle.</h3>

A, b and c stand for three different numbers
creativ13 [48]

To find the mean, you add up the numbers and divide by
how many numbers there are.

So if the mean of   'A' and 'B' is 40, then   A + B = 80 .
And if the mean of 'B' and 'C' is 35 then    B + C = 70.
==========================================
You said that     (A + B) + C = 100 .
 
From something else that you said, I noticed that      A + B = 80 .

So I can write        (80)    + C  =  100

Subtract 80 from each side:  C = 20
==========================================
I also noticed, from what you said, that    B + C = 70 .

So I can write                  B + 20 = 70

Subtract 20 from each side:    B  =  50
==========================================
Now I know that  C = 20  and  B = 50.

Finally, you said that           A + B + C = 100 ,

So I can write                   A + 50 + 20 = 100

Combine like terms on the left:  A + 70 = 100

Subtract  70  from each side:      A      =  30
==========================================

           <em>  A = 30</em>
<em>             B = 50</em>
<em>             C = 20</em>
