Cherie measures and records the lengths and sizes of the same style of a sandal found at a shoe store. which equation can be used to determine the approximate shoe size, s, for a foot length of x inches? s = x – 2 s = 2x – 10 s = x + 6 s = 2x + 4

1- is the product of two rational numbers irrational or rational? first, make a hypothesis by multiplying two rational numbers. then, use variables such as x=a/b and y=c/d and the closure property of integers to prove your hypothesis. 2- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis. 3- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in part b?

Is the figure congruent? yes or no?
