OpenStudy (anonymous):

didn't you get the answer on the last post

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how can you tell if its irrational

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh and yes it was \[\sqrt{144}\]

OpenStudy (misty1212):

yes it was now this one is different, but the answer is the same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does irrational kinda mean odd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's B because the square root of 16 is a non-repeating non-terminating decimal. >:/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did my process of elimination took A and D out and it left me with B and C

OpenStudy (misty1212):

irrational does not mean odd odd means odd irrational means not rational. rationals means it can be the ratio of two integers irrationals means it cannot be that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i say that it would be C

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the square root of a non perfecgt square is irrationals so yes, C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C is the right answer

OpenStudy (misty1212):

\[\sqrt{a}\] is irrational unless \(a\) is a square

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh yeah sorry I meant C too woops B is actually 4 ;;;o;

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (misty1212):
