Prove that if x and y are rational then their product is also rational. First write a proof on your own and then put the following statements into order to obtain the proof. Put N next to the statements that should not be used in the proof. 1. Then, xy=acbd . 2. Suppose x and y are arbitrary rational numbers. 3. Since a, c are integers, e=ac is also an integer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The aim of this question is to prove that the product of two rationals is rational.

To proof:

If are arbitrary rational numbers.

Thus, going by the definition of rational, there exist integers

a, b, ≠ 0, c, and d ≠ 0 ;

Hence,

Since a and c are integers, then e = ac appears to be an integer as well.

Also, provided that b and d are non-zero integers;

f =bd appears to be a non-zero integer.

Therefore, , and going by the definition of rational, xy is rational.

Hence, from the complete question:

The order of the statement is:

7,6,3,5,2,4

The statements that should not be used in the proof are:

1 N

8 N

9 N

10 N

11 N

.632

step-by-step explanation:

6 * 1/10 = 3/5

3*0.01 = 0.03

3/5 + 0.03 = .63

2*0.002 = .002

.63 + 0.002 = .632

what's the question?

step-by-step explanation:

there is no question.
