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?

Anew test for ra is being developed. the test is administered to 750 patients with ra and 750 without ra. for the sake of the question, assume the prevalence of ra in this population is 50%. of the 750 patients with ra, 575 have a positive result. of the 750 patients without ra, 150 have a positive result. what is the positive predictive value of the new test? a575/(575+150) b. 600/(600+ 150) c. 575/(575+125) d. 600/(600+ 125)
