Mai's younger brother tells her that 10/7 is equal to square root of 2. Mai knows this can't be right,
because 10/7 is rational and square root of 2 is irrational. Write an explanation that Mai could use
to convince her brother that 10/7 cannot be the square root of 2.

Match each statement with its corresponding value for the system below: y = -2(3)x and y = 9x - 2 1. the number of points of intersection. -2 2. the x-coordinate of the solution. 1 3. the y-coordinate of the solution. 0

The length of a rectangle is x times the square root of 100. the width is one-half y more than three-halves x. given that the area of the rectangle is 125 cm2, which equation could represent the rectangle in terms of x and y? a) 5xy − 15x = 125 b) 5xy + 15x = 125 c) 15x2 − 5xy = 125 d) 15x2 + 5xy = 125

Peter applied to an accounting firm and a consulting firm. he knows that 30% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the accounting firm, while only 20% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the consulting firm. assume that receiving an offer from one firm is independent of receiving an offer from the other. what is the probability that both firms offer peter a job?
