Compare and contrast the processes of solving rational and radical equations i only need like 2-3 sentences.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be written as a ratio a/b, where a & b are integers & b \neq 0. Rational numbers are terminating or repeating. The radical sign means "the positive square root of."

Example:

√144 = "the square root of 144" but indicates the positive square root of 144, which is 12

Hope this helps!!! :)

Rational equations or expressions (think rational numbers) are any expression which is in fraction form and where the denominator is not equal to zero. Like:   etc.

Radical expressions are those expressions that contain radicals (square, cube, fourth roots). Like 4 and -4 are the square roots of 16. A square root is written with a radical symbol √ and the number inside the radical symbol is called the radicand.

x is greater than 5

step-by-step explanation:

2x+7 is greater than 17

    -7                           -7

2x is greater than 10

divide by 2 each side

x is greater than 5

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
