Which equations support the fact that rational numbers are closed under subtraction?

Mathematics

Illusion [34]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A rational number is said to be closed if the subtracted values and the result obtained are rational. Hence, the equations which supports the condition are :

5.5 - 0.5 = 4

5√4 - √4 = 4√4

Step-by-step explanation:

A.)

√8 - √8 = 0 ; the added values aren't rational and the result, Zero is not rational either.

B.)

5√4 - √4 = 4√4

5(2) - 2 = 2(2)

10 - 2 = 4

All the values in the expression are rational ; hence, it supports the assertion.

C)

5.5 - 0.5 = 4 ; all the values in the expression are rational, hence, it supports the fact.

2√3 - √3 = √3 ; the values in the expression are not rational, hence, it does not meet the condition.

Therefore, only options B and C supports the assertion.

Let me add that I learned most of this from Brainly a user named fichoh :)

Which is the biggest number 2.07 2.24 2.4 2 2.04
Temka [501]
Among all these no., see the first no. that lies before or left side of decimal point, here... 2 is common so next check the no. After decimal... 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2 is considered as 2.0 and then we have 2.0... Let's not take 2.0s and let's take 2.2 and 2.4 which is greater than 2.0. Next see the second no. That comes after decimal We have 2.24 and 2.4 which can be taken as 2.40... The no.s after decimal, 24 is greater than 40 so 2.4 is greater...
