Option D

The sum of two irrational numbers is always rational is false statement

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<h3><u>The sum of two rational numbers is always rational</u></h3>

"The sum of two rational numbers is rational."

So, adding two rationals is the same as adding two such fractions, which will result in another fraction of this same form since integers are closed under addition and multiplication. Thus, adding two rational numbers produces another rational number.

For example:

$\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{9}{20}$

rational number + rational number = rational number

Hence this statement is true

<h3><u>The product of a non zero rational number and an irrational number is always irrational</u></h3>

If you multiply any irrational number by the rational number zero, the result will be zero, which is rational.

Any other situation, however, of a rational times an irrational will be irrational.

A better statement would be: "The product of a non-zero rational number and an irrational number is irrational."

So this statement is correct

<h3><u>The product of two rational numbers is always rational</u></h3>

The product of two rational numbers is always rational.

A number is said to be a rational number if it is of the form p/q,where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0

Any integer is a rational number because it can be written in p/q form.

Hence it is clear that product of two rational numbers is always rational.

So this statement is correct

<h3><u>The sum of two irrational numbers is always rational</u></h3>

"The sum of two irrational numbers is SOMETIMES irrational."

The sum of two irrational numbers, in some cases, will be irrational. However, if the irrational parts of the numbers have a zero sum (cancel each other out), the sum will be rational.

Thus this statement is false

Elanso [62]

Answer: 0.0885

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : According to a recent Catalyst Census, 16% of executive officers were women with companies that have company headquarters in the Midwest.

i.e. p= 0.16

Sample size : n= 154

Now, the probability that more than 20% of this sample is comprised of female employees is given by :-

$P(p>0.20)=P(z>\dfrac{0.20-0.16}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.16(1-0.16)}{154}}})$

[∵ $z=\frac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}$ ]

$=P(z>1.35)\approx1-P(z\leq1.35)=1-0.9115=0.0885$ [Using the standard z-value table]

Hence, the required probability = 0.0885

A ball is thrown into the air. The height in feet of the ball can be modeled by the equation, h(t) = −16t2 + 10t + 6 where t is

A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is a Function?</h3>

A function assigns the value of each element of one set to the other specific element of another set.

The time at which the ball will hit the ground is,

h(t) = −16t² + 10t + 6

0 = -16t² + 10t + 6

8t² - 8t + 3t - 3= 0

8t(t-1)+3(t-1) = 0

(8t+3)(t-1)=0

t = -0.375, 1

Hence, the ball hit the ground at 1 second, while the function in intercept form can be written as h(t) = (−8t − 3)(2t − 2).

Thus, the correct option is D.
