It would be irrational, there is a math calculator called math papa if you need to check your answer
First, pull out a factor of
.
Notice that when
(which you can arrive at via the rational root theorem), you have
which means you can pull out a factor of
. Upon dividing you get
The rational root theorem will come in handy again, suggesting that
appears a second time as a root, which means
Now this is more readily factored without having to resort to the rational root theorem. You have
so in fact,
shows up as a root for a third time.
So, you have
Two roots are obvious,
and
(with multiplicity 3). The remaining two are given by
The correct answer would be B: <. Hope this helps :D
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5 quarts of grape juice should be mixed with 3/4 quarts of water.
1.5 is the same as 3/2. Our ratio is 3/2 : 3/4
If we multiply everything by 4, things will get even easier to understand.
This gives us a ratio of (4 x 3/2) : (4 x 3/4)...
...or more simply put as 6 : 3
Which is even more simply put as 2:1
so for 15/4 we want
15/4 x 2 = 15/2
or 7.5 quarts if you want to express it once again as a decimal.
(We can also attack the problem by simply considering is all in decimals at the outset; 1.5 quarts grape mixed with 0.75 quarts of water. The 2: 1 relationship is quite obvious looking at this. Once again 15/4 x 2 = 15/2 or seven and a half quarts).
