Ms. Good has a bag of 15 marbles. Three are blue, six are red, and six are yellow. What is the probability that she picks a yellow and then a red if she does NOT replace the marbles? Im hoping someone can explain this to me, I have a stubborn math teacher who doesnt like to re-explain things.

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?
