Two cars leave towns 510 kilometers apart at the same time and travel toward each other. one car’s rate is 16 kilometers per hour less than the other’s. if they meet in 3 hours, what is the rate of the slower car?

Which shows the correct lengths of side c in both scales? scale 1: 45 m; scale 2: 60 m scale 1: 60 m; scale 2: 45 m scale 1: 36 m; scale 2: 27 m scale 1: 27 m; scale 2: 36 m mark this and return save and exit

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?

Can someone factor this fully? my friend and i have two different answers and i would like to know if either of them is right. you in advance. a^2 - b^2 + 25 + 10a
