CHeck please?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't think you're correct

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

0 isn't irrational...

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

0 is an integer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

irrational means you can't write "a/b" to represent the number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0 can be represented by, for example, 0/1

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

0 is the ultimate rational number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

also, let's look at I. what ratio could represent that number?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

only one choice left...

OpenStudy (agent47):

just to let confused guys know,\(\sqrt{49}\) is not irrational just bcuz its a sqrt.... it can be represented by 7/1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it sqrt 6?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

yes sqrt 6...what else?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6 1/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's 19/3

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

you have 1/3 there...rational numbers are fractions

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

therefore that automatically disqualifies fractions from being irrational

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

rational numbers = fractions and whole numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1.4949494949 then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

as well as 9.02?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9.02 is 902/100

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

and no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

remember if you can convert it into "a/b" then it's rational

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

9.02 is rational

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

terminating decimals (decimals that have end) are rational

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So its only sqrt 6 and 1.49494949?

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

non-terminating repeated decimals are also rational (like 0.33333333333)

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

yes sqrt 6 and 1.449494949944

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm actually a pilot, this is important when using a kind of system called "DME"

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

seems too small...

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

pythagorean theorem \[\sqrt{14300^2 - 4100^2}\]

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

@ktklown you mean to tell me math is really important in life?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, 3.5 is not right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lgbasallote i'm afraid so
