Isaiah says that the number below is a rational number because it has a repeating pattern. Do you agree? Use the drop-down menus to explain your answer.

The number is not rational. We consider it irrational because the pattern does not repeat.

Yes we have elements of "7" and "8" showing up in a fairly predictable pattern; however, we don't have 78 repeating forever or 788 repeating forever, etc. Instead, the string of "8"s appear to grow by 1 digit each time we get to a new block.

So again, we have an illusion of a pattern which may have tricked Isaiah into thinking that this number is rational, when in fact it's not. Because it's irrational, we cannot represent it as a ratio of two integers (aka a fraction of integers).

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
