Now examine the sum of a rational number, y, and an irrational number, x. The rational number y can be written as y = a/b, where a and b are integers and b ≠ 0. Leave the irrational number x as x because it can’t be written as the ratio of two integers.
Let’s look at a proof by contradiction. In other words, we’re trying to show that x + y is equal to a rational number instead of an irrational number. Let the sum equal m/n, where m and n are integers and n ≠ 0. The process for rewriting the sum for x is shown.
Statement l Reason
x + a/b = m/n l substitution
x + a/b - a/b = m/n - a/b l subtraction property of equality
x = m/n -a/b l
x = (b/b) (m/n) -( n/n) (a/b) l Create common denominators.
x = bm/bn - an/bn l
x = bm-an/bn l Simplify
Based on what we established about the classification of x and using the closure of integers, what does the equation tell you about the type of number x must be for the sum to be rational? What conclusion can you now make about the result of adding a rational and an irrational number?

Alake near the arctic circle is covered by a 222-meter-thick sheet of ice during the cold winter months. when spring arrives, the warm air gradually melts the ice, causing its thickness to decrease at a constant rate. after 333 weeks, the sheet is only 1.251.251, point, 25 meters thick. let s(t)s(t)s, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis denote the ice sheet's thickness sss (measured in meters) as a function of time ttt (measured in weeks).
