OpenStudy (brucebaner):
a?
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
No, \[\sqrt{36} = 6 \implies \frac{ 6 }{ 1 } \implies rational\]
OpenStudy (brucebaner):
b
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
There is only one obvious one, that should stick out.

Please, don't guess
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
What is the \[\sqrt{49} ?\]
OpenStudy (brucebaner):
sorry guys im not good at this :(
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
Remember irrational numbers can't be written as fractions so something like pi, pi = 3.14159265....and you cannot simplify it into a ratio.
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
It's ok, don't worry that's why we're here to help you understand :)

\[\sqrt{49} \implies 7 \implies \frac{ 7 }{ 1 }\] so is this rational or irrational?
OpenStudy (brucebaner):
rational
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
Good! Because we can treat it as a simple fraction, now the next one, do you think we can treat is as the others?
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
You would need a calculator for this one, so that should give you some hint :P
OpenStudy (brucebaner):
so i think D

Why is D irrational?
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
What is the square root of 121
OpenStudy (brucebaner):
11
OpenStudy (brucebaner):
@Astrophysics
OpenStudy (astrophysics):
Yes, good bruce, so we can treat that as 11/1 right, so that will be rational as well, meaning our answer is? :)
