Plz determine whether the polynomial is a difference of squares and if it is, factor it. y2 – 196 is a difference of squares: (y + 14)2 is a difference of squares: (y – 14)2 is a difference of squares: (y + 14)(y – 14) is not a difference of squares

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?

In an improper fraction, is the numerator equal to, less than, or greater than the denominator
