Question

Determine whether the solutions to the equations are rational or irrational. x2 = 27 : . x2 = 1 :

Answer 1

Explanation:

x^2 = 27 does not produce an equivalent rational root hen we take the squre root of vboth sides: x = plus or minus sqrt(27). sqrt(27) IS irrational. So is ghe equivalent x = ±√(3^3) = ±3^√3

x^2 = 1 simplifies to ±1, which is rational.

Answer 2

Answer: x2 = 1 is rational

x2 = 27 is irrational
