1- 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.2- 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 the first question?

The mass of a marine organism, in pounds, p years after it is born is given by the polynomial function r(p) = -4p2 + 300p. find the mass when p = 20 years.

Which is the factored form of the polynomial p(x) shown here?
