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

Illusion [34]2 years ago

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 :)

Natalija [7]
Y = (x - 2)/3
3y = x - 2
x = 3y + 2

Therefore, the inverse of y = (x - 2)/3 is y = 3x + 2

Solve the system of equations using the elimination method. 1.Solve {x + 3y = -15
shutvik [7]

An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The solution is (-9,-2).

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Given the equation x + 3y = -15 and -3x + 2y = 23,

Step 1- Multiply the equations to make the coefficients match in either the x- or y-variable.

x + 3y = -15

3x + 9y = -45

Step2- After you multiply, add or subtract the two equations.

3x + 9y -3x + 2y = -45 + 23

Step 3- Then solve for the variables that is left.

11y = -22

y = -2

Step4- Substitute the value of y in any one of equations to solve for x.

x + 3(-2) = -15

x - 6 = -15

x = -9

Hence, The solution is (-9,-2).
