Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(6/5)√x = x - 6
(36/25)x = x² - 12x + 36
0 = x² - 13.44x + 36
x = (13.44 ± √(13.44² - 4(1)(36))) / (2(1))
x = (13.44 ± 6.052569702...) / 2
x = 3.69371... zebras
or
x = 9.74628... zebras
In either case we have some odd fractions of zebras hanging around. This makes me highly suspect that the question is misreported
An irrational decimal is a decimal that cannot be written in fraction form
Ex: Pi or any decimal that keeps going and doesn't repeat
I would give you more examples but they are all really long numbers and go on forever.
