Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the proof. To prove that 4π is irrational, assume the product is rational

and set it equal to ​ab​, where b is not equal to 0: 4π=ab. Isolating π gives π=a4b. The right side of the equation is Choose.(rational or Irrational).. . Because the left side of the equation is Choose.(rational or irrational).. , this is a contradiction. Therefore, the assumption is wrong, and the number 4π is Choose(rational or Irrational)... .

The product of a rational number and an irrational number is an irrational

number.

The correctly completed proof is presented as follows;

To prove that 4·π is irrational, with the assumption that, 4·π = \displaystyle \frac{a}{b}, where <em>b</em> ≠ 0. Which by isolation of π gives π = \displaystyle \mathbf{ \frac{a}{4 \cdot b}}.

The right side of the equation is <u>irrational</u>, because the left side of the

equation is <u>irrational</u>, this is a contradiction.

Therefore, the assumption is wrong and the number 4·π is<u> irrational</u>.

Reasons:

The proof is presented as follows;

With the assumption that 4·π is rational, we have;

\displaystyle 4 \cdot \pi = \mathbf{\frac{a}{b}}

Where;

b ≠ 0

Making π the subject of the above formula, by isolating, it, we have;

\displaystyle  \pi = \mathbf{\frac{a}{4 \cdot b}}

The right side of the equation is rational, however, the left side of the

equation π is irrational, which results in a contradiction, therefore, the

product 4·π is an irrational number.

Answer:

3 brownies

To find this answer we need to divide the 0.81 by 0.27 to find out how many brownies total 0.81:

0.81 ÷ 0.27 = 3

So he needs to sell 3 brownies.
