Prove the following statement directly from the definitions. The difference of any two rational numbers is a rational number. Proof: Suppose r and s are any two rational numbers. By definition of rational, r

- Integers, b ≠ 0 and d ≠ 0.

- r - s = (ad - bc)/bd.

- products and differences of integers are integers.

-  zero product property

- quotient.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational numbers are integers that can take the form of numerator divided by a denominator, that is to say in the form of 'a/b;. So, we are given from the question or problem to prove and fill in the gap the correct information or data:

For the first part of the question:

The missing data in the gap = Integers; b ≠ 0 and d ≠ 0. That is to say the denominators can not be zero or say that the denominators are non zero. This is one of the properties or let us say one of the ways of identifying a Rational number.

For the second part:

The missing data in the gap = a/b - c/d =  (ad - bc)/bd. This is the representation in  a simplified form.

For the third part:

The missing data or information = products and differences of integers are integers.

For the fourth part:

The missing data or information: zero product property, that is to say the product of the numerators is not equal to zero, or it is non zero.

For the fifth part:

The missing data or information: quotient.  r - s is a quotient of two integers.

answer: c.  

step-by-step explanation:

mixtures containing substances that get attracted to magnet can be separated using a magnet. we can separate iron from a mixture of sand and iron, as only iron attracts to the magnet.
